Sask. RCMP looking for mother and three missing children

Police are looking for information about 55-year-old Astrid Schiller and her three children aged 12, 11 and 9. There is no Amber Alert.

Saskatchewan RCMP is asking for help to find a mother and three children missing from Ontario since December 2023, who may be staying at campgrounds and parks in Saskatchewan.

In a news release on Saturday, police said that on June 21 they received a report of an abandoned vehicle at Pine Cree Regional Park — in the Cypress Hills between Shaunavon and Eastend.

Police said the white 2018 Mercedes GLC is linked to 55-year-old Astrid Schiller, who is wanted by Durham Regional Police for child abduction on a 2023 warrant.

The group were recently in Manitoba, where Boissevain RCMP received a report of them being at Boissevain border crossing at 2 a.m. on June 16.

Officers then took the three children into care, and arrested Schiller on the Ontario warrant. Schiller was later released from custody as the warrant was not extended into Manitoba, police said.

Then, on June 17 at 1:25 a.m., Blue Hills RCMP were told the three children were no longer in care in Forrest, Manitoba, and were believed to be with Schiller, who was identified as driving the Mercedes later found in Saskatchewan.

Schiller’s warrant does not extend into Saskatchewan, police added.
