Police in Prince Albert continue to try and solve the mysterious death of an Aboriginal woman there.

It’s been roughly five-and-a-half months since the body of 26-year-old Antoinette Ruth Daniels was discovered floating in the North Saskatchewan River by the community’s pulp mill.

Sergeant Al Fraser says the police not sure if the matter is a homicide, but they are continuing to canvass potential witnesses and accept leads.

Daniels was six months pregnant when she went missing.

Her body was discovered on July 22nd of last year — but it was so badly decomposed, authorities aren’t sure how long it had been in the water.
