RCMP from Jasper, Alta. to Kamloops, B.C. are asking for the public’s help after Gibsons’ resident May Milling has reportedly gone missing in that area.

Milling, 81, was last seen leaving a B&B in Jasper at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 2 and did not arrive at a friend’s home in Kamloops later that day as expected.

Jasper RCMP Sgt. Patrick Webb said police have concluded a two-day search of Highways 16 and 5, which link the two towns.

“It’s about 400 kilometers. It’s quite a fairly rugged area and the highway winds quite a bit, but we had the helicopter up. We had two sweeps. We had RCMP members and Parks Canada people go through there in their respective areas trying to check every possible place where a vehicle could make it into. No luck finding the vehicle or her,” he said. “It could, obviously, be resumed at a moment’s notice if something comes up that says she is still in that area, but right now we have nothing outside of the fact that she was due in Kamloops.”

Webb said there is nothing to suggest foul play and RCMP are treating Milling as a missing person.

Webb said Milling has a cell phone, which appears to not be activated and her vehicle was equipped with OnStar, which the company has not been able to locate.

Webb said police will monitor Milling’s bank accounts in hopes that recent activity may provide information as to her whereabouts.

Milling drives a blue 2009 Buick Lucerne sedan, with BC license plate 147 LHF. Anyone with information about milling or her vehicle is asked to contact Jasper RCMP at 780-852-4848.
