Winnipeg, MB – Winnipeg police are asking for the public’s help today to locate a missing 63-year-old woman, as concern grows for her safety.
According to the Winnipeg Police Service, Catherine Berthelette was last seen around 2:00 p.m. on Friday, January 9, 2026, in the 100 block of Henry Avenue, near Winnipeg’s downtown area. Police say she has not been heard from since and may be vulnerable.
Berthelette is described as 5-foot-5, with a thin build, hazel eyes, and brown, straight, medium-length hair. At this time, police say there is no available clothing description, which may make spotting her more difficult.
Due to concerns for her wellbeing, Winnipeg police have activated a Silver Alert, a designation used when a vulnerable adult is reported missing and may be at risk.
Henry Avenue is located just north of downtown Winnipeg, near the Centennial neighborhood and not far from major routes such as Main Street. Investigators are urging residents, business owners, and commuters in the area to check security footage, dash cams, and back lanes that may show Berthelette after Friday afternoon.
Police say anyone who may have seen Berthelette, or who has information about her current whereabouts, is asked to contact the Winnipeg Police Service Missing Persons Unit at 204-986-6250.
Authorities stress that even small details could be critical in helping bring her home safely.
