Authorities Looking For Missing Woman In Northern MN

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – The Keewatin Police Department is asking for the public's help to find a 43-year-old woman who hasn't been seen since Saturday.

Authorities say Bridgid Novotny Miller of Keewatin left her residence on Saturday, Jan. 3, and was last seen at about 2 p.m. that day at the 7th Street trail head walking west toward Nashwauk. Keewatin is in northern Minnesota, between Grand Rapids and Hibbing.

Police say they are worried for her well-being due to health concerns and the recent extreme cold that has hit the area. Authorities are asking residents in the area to keep an eye out around their properties for signs that Miller might have taken shelter.

She is described as about 5 feet, 5 inches tall and weighing about 170 pounds with blonde hair and green eyes. She was last seen wearing a black hat, black gloves and coat, blue jeans with a belt and white socks.
