The RCMP in Alberta are asking for tips from the public as they look for a family of three that has not been seen since Dec. 23.
In a news release issued late Monday, police said investigators believe the Pelsma family may have gone off-roading in utility terrain vehicle, or “side-by-side,” in Lac Ste. Anne County, which is located about a one-hour drive west of Edmonton.
“Parkland RCMP are concerned for their well-being and are asking for the public’s assistance,” police said in a news release. “Their intended destination was unknown.”
Three members of the family who police are looking for are 39-year-old Kelly Pelsma, 37-year-old Laura Pelsma and eight-year-old Dylan Pelsma.
Kelly is about five feet nine inches and 190 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.
