Missing Woman Found

A Kenora woman who had been missing in the Red Lake area for nearly a week was found on the weekend in good condition.

O-P-P say Valerie Cain was located near the Chukuni River, about 30 kilometers south of the town Saturday morning.

Police say Cain had spent six nights in the bush after leaving a Red Lake motel a week ago to go to work at the town's hospital.

She was transported to hospital in Red Lake suffering from dehydration and extensive insect bits, but was otherwise said to be good condition.

Police did not explain how or why Cain had come to be in the bush.
