Missing Mandan woman’s Facebook page updated a day after she was reportedly last seen

The Mandan Police Department is looking for 22-year-old Ava Morin, an Indigenous woman who was reportedly last seen on Nov. 15, according to the North Dakota Office of Attorney General.

A Nov. 16 post on Morin’s Facebook page, made at 5 a.m., shows what appears to be a bloody scalp and says that a woman “just hit me in the back of my head with a metal bat.”

The Mandan Police Department did not immediately respond to questions about whether Morin is believed to be endangered, where she was last seen and what her tribal affiliation is.

Morin is described by the attorney general’s office as 5 feet, 4 inches tall and 140 pounds, with brown eyes and hair. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Mandan Police Department at 701-667-3250.
