Manitoba Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have issued a public appeal for help in locating a man from the Selkirk area who has been missing since Christmas Eve. Blair Colles was last seen on December 24, 2025, and his whereabouts remain unknown as the new year approaches.
Details of the Disappearance
The RCMP released a photograph of Colles in an effort to aid the search. Authorities have not provided specific details about the circumstances leading to his disappearance or his intended destination. The investigation is ongoing, with police actively following up on leads and gathering information from the community. The timing of his disappearance, during the holiday season, has added urgency to the search efforts.
Community and Police Response
Local law enforcement is urging anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward. Residents in the Selkirk, Winnipeg, and surrounding Interlake regions are asked to be vigilant and report any potential sightings or relevant details to the Manitoba RCMP. The police have not indicated whether foul play is suspected but are treating the case with high priority due to the length of time Colles has been missing and the cold winter conditions.
How to Help
If you have seen Blair Colles or have any information regarding his disappearance, you are strongly encouraged to contact your local RCMP detachment or Manitoba Crime Stoppers anonymously. Public assistance is often crucial in missing persons cases, and any piece of information could be key to locating him safely.
The RCMP continue their search and investigation as the community hopes for his safe return.
