More than a year after the mysterious disappearance of Autumn Shaganash in Barrie, police are still searching for clues.
“There have been a number of appeals and initiatives put forward. The family has not given up, and neither has the Barrie Police Service,” said the service’s communications coordinator, Peter Leon.
Those appeals and a $50,000 reward have generated dozens of tips from people claiming to have information about the case and Shaganash’s whereabouts. However, none of these tips, including an alleged sighting in northern Ontario, have helped solve the case.
In June, Barrie police said they received a tip that Shaganash had been spotted) in the area of Regina Street and McIntyre Street in North Bay.
“With the distance between here and North Bay, North Bay police provided us the assistance that they could provide. They were able to have their officers in the immediate area until we could obtain that video,” explained Leon.
Shaganash’s family was given access to privately view the security footage and, after watching, confirmed it was not the missing 27-year-old, dampening their hopes of finding Autumn.
” We always get a little rush like, ‘Oh my gosh, it’s her,” said Kimberly Moore, Shaganash’s cousin.
Shaganash was first reported missing on June 10, 2023.
