    Earlier story:

    Despite multiple searches and investigative efforts, no information has been found that could help police find a missing Piccadilly woman. 51 year old Myra Jane Barter has not been seen since noon on Saturday, August 3, 2024.  At that time, she was walking along the Main Road in Piccadilly.  RCMP Cpl Jolene Garland says the woman may have been berry picking in the area. The missing woman has mobility issues and health concerns that require medication. She is currently without her cell phone and believed to be without her medication. When she was last seen, Barter was wearing black pants and a light-colored shirt and was walking with a cane. Bay St. George RCMP asks residents of Piccadilly to check for any available surveillance images, including home surveillance and dash cam footage for possible sightings of Barter. 

    Anyone who may have seen Barter since she was last seen around noon, August 3, is asked to contact Bay St. George RCMP at 709-643-2118.
