RCMP say they remain committed to finding answers about the disappearance of Danielle Nyland, who would have been 24 years old June 15.

Nyland went missing one year ago on June 10 and was found dead nine days later.

Investigators consider her death suspicious, and the RCMP Major Crime Unit North is seeking information.

Some details have been released about the night Danielle went missing:

According to police, Nyland was last seen on the morning of June 8, 2015 in the Shellbrook/Holbein/Canwood area. The night she went missing, Nyland wore black tights and a black shirt with a very specific pattern — blue, pink and teal arrows and shapes.

Nyland had attended a gathering in the East Flat area of Prince Albert June 7. At 7:43 a.m. June 8, a black Chevrolet Cruz with four passengers stopped at a business at the intersection of Highway 55 and  Highway 3 in Shellbrook.

Shortly after 9 a.m. June 8, that same Chevrolet Cruz stopped at the same business but this time with only two passengers.

Police have located this vehicle in Prince Albert as part of their investigation.

Danielle was reported missing June 10, 2015. Multiple searches took place and, according to the RCMP, these included F Division RCMP Air Services, civilian and RCMP Search and Rescue teams, Tactical Troop, Police Dog Service and the Underwater Recovery Team.

RCMP searchers found Danielle’s remains at a secluded, wooded area east of Shellbrook on June 19, 2015 at 6:25 p.m. Her cellphone was located 500 metres away.

Anyone who recalls seeing or knows the movements of a black Chevrolet Cruz in the Shellbrook area especially on the morning of June 8, 2015, is encouraged to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
