Help sought in finding Northern Cheyenne woman


An 18-year-old member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe has been missing since February 6. Her family is seeking assistance in helping locate her.

Vanessa Seminole is four months pregnant. She called her mother on February 1 and said she was in a battered women's shelter in Arizona to escape her boyfriend. Police there checked on her and said she was doing fine.

But she left Arizona and was last seen in Sheridan, Wyoming, around February 6 with her boyfriend. The boyfriend has family in Havre, Montana, near the Rocky Boy's Reservation.

Police say Seminole may be on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation or the Crow Reservation, where she has family. Medicine men contacted by the family believe she may be in southeastern Montana and they believe she is being held against her will.

Seminole's boyfriend drives a brown and white Ford pickup truck with Montana license plate 24T-E761.
