Valerie Cain Found

The OPP say they have located a Keewatin woman who had been reported missing almost a week ago in the Red Lake area.

Valerie Cain was located Saturday morning around 8:30 in relativelygood condition, despite having spent six nights in the bush.

Cain was found near the Chukuni River, about 30 kilometers south of Red Lake.

Her 1999 Ford Explorer had been found a day earlier by a float plane pilot, and the OPP concentrated their search efforts in that area ofHighway 105.

She was transported to Margaret Cochenor Hospital in Red Lake suffering from dehydration and extensive insect bits, but was otherwise found to be in good condition.
