17-year-old reported missing in North Battleford, RCMP say

Battlefords RCMP are asking for help to find a missing 17-year-old.

Police say they were called about Lita Bugler being missing on Thursday.

She was last seen in a North Battleford home a week ago, on Jan. 21, but RCMP say they were unsuccessful in finding Bugler in areas she was known to visit, so they are asking for public assistance to find her.

Bugler has brown eyes and black hair, and is about five feet three inches tall and weighs 140 pounds, police said in a news release.

She was last seen wearing a green sweater with writing on the back, grey sweatpants and white shoes, and she had a black purse with her.

RCMP are asking anyone with information on Bugler’s whereabouts to contact Battlefords RCMP at 306-446-1720 or make a report anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
