RCMP release photo of motorhome associated with missing Kamloops woman

RCMP have sent a photo of a motorhome a missing Kamloops woman was last seen in to her mother.

Jayde-Lyn Heard, 29, was reported missing Aug. 2 and was seen getting into the motorhome at a 7-Eleven on Seymour Street that day.

It's a 1976 Frontier motorhome with B.C. plates NS3 45F.

“After looking at surveillance video, the officer says there is a dog travelling in the motorhome,” Heard’s sister wrote in an email to iNFOnews.ca. “It's a male driver but they're still not allowed to tell the name.”

This afternoon, Aug. 18, RCMP released the name of the man they suspect is travelling with Heard. Police are hoping to speak with 49-year-old Christopher Engman.

Engman is described as a Caucasian male, 5'7" tall, 170 lb. with blond hair.

Heard is described as 5' 8" tall, weighing 135 lb. with long reddish hair with a Grim Reaper tattoo on her upper right arm.
