Burnaby RCMP located the woman’s blue Toyota Corolla near Fraser Foreshore Park the day she went missing.
According to Mounties, Winter’s bank card was last used at a grocery store three days before she went missing. She used her fob key in the parkade of her home near Gray Avenue and Wesbrook Mall on the same day around 6:20 p.m.
