LAC Du FLAMBEAU, WI (WSAU-WAOW) — The Lac du Flambeau Tribal Police is refocusing the search efforts for Melissa Beson, who has been missing since mid-March.
WAOW TV reports officers with the department are now concentrating search efforts along County D, south of Kiboniki Lake, using foot searches, drones, and canines. The move comes after a new lead suggests Beason was seen exiting a van near the lake, then became agitated and refused a ride from another vehicle in the area.
No further information has been released.
Beson is described as 5’7” with a medium build, brown hair, and brown eyes. She has multiple tattoos on her neck, arms, and legs. She went missing on March 17th. Since then, multiple search efforts have come up empty.
The Tribe is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to her return or the arrest of those responsible for her disappearance. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Lac du Flambeau Tribal Police Department at 715-588-7717 or the Vilas County Sheriff’s Office at 715-479-4441.
