No one is able to find Tina. Not until August 17th when a man and his son come across a bodyshaped object wrapped in
00:00:07
what appeared to be a blanket along the bank of the Red River in Winnipeg while scoping out fishing locations. Now, when
00:00:14
they find this, they didn't open the blanket up or touch it. They like ran immediately and contacted police. And it

doesn't take long for police to respond because while this guy and his son had been out there, they had actually seen a
00:00:25
bunch of police boats and divers. According to coverage from CBC News, those crews had been on the water all
00:00:31
weekend looking for a man who'd been reported struggling in the water on the Friday before. But this obviously wasn't
00:00:38
the missing guy that they were looking
