MISSOULA — Law enforcement is asking for help in finding Rickisha 'Kisha' Bear, a missing 19-year-old woman last seen on February 4, 2024.
A concerned family member told MTN, "[Rickisha] communicates with somebody. I mean, from here to there she knew everyone. To be distant from me and not communicate with me is not super abnormal, but to not speak with anybody, that's not normal. Like something is wrong.”
The Chippewa Cree woman was visiting the Flathead Indian Reservation from the Rocky Boy's Reservation. In addition to those two reservations, Bear has ties to Billings.
