NOYES, Minn. A woman who may have been trying to reach Canada on foot from the United States probably froze to death in a remote part of northwestern Minnesota, authorities said.
The body of 57-year-old Mavis Otuteye, who authorities believe was a citizen of Ghana in western Africa, was found Friday in a field a half-mile from the Canadian border near the tiny town of Noyes, according to the Kittson County Sheriff

Damn Canada.
They should have sent a private jet for her.
Is Trump that bad?
I’m betting she had a heart attack..................
“TRAIL OF ICE CUBES” now; or perhaps “TRAIL OF FROZEN MEAT” ? ;^)
Probably mistaken for a whitetail by a drunken gopher hunter.
Seems pretty racist, islamophobic, homophobic and fascist to me...
She obviously never heard of the Donner Party. Don’t cross the country in the dead of winter. And never stepped outside her Delaware home to investigate that white stuff on her lawn.
Yeah, Minnesota would be the direction I’d take from Delaware...
IT IS JUNE! How can global warming allow anyone to freeze to death in the Lower 48?
Unfortunately for the Dudleys, her twin sister “Ghana Rhea” made it safely and is now turning tricks in Winnipeg.
How does one write an article like that and omit mention of the woman’s legal status in the US, or lack thereof? Is journalism that far gone?
The whole story is weird!
I keep reading about these people slogging through the Minnesota woods to get to Canada. But aren’t there towns in Vermont/New York state that basically straddle the border. I know there’s one where the towns’ library is partially in Canada and partially in the U.S.
So instead of trekking through the countryside, why not drive up to Derby Line, VT and then walk across the street to Stanstead, Quebec? No risk of hypothermia, wolves, etc. Call the Canadian cops and apply for asylum?
A stupid person, for sure. She could’ve taken a bus or car to a border town and then walk across to Canada. Lwaving the USA isn’t like trying to flee from North Korea.
Any death is a tragedy.
From the article:
Otuteye was reported missing a day earlier and was likely headed to Canada on foot to try to reunite with her daughter, Chief Deputy Matt Vig told WDAZ-TV. He said Otuteye had been living in Delaware for the past several years.
and of course they are blaming it on President Trump (even though she has been in the US for several years) with this speculation......
There’s been a surge in immigrants trying to illegally cross the US border into Canada on foot from Minnesota and North Dakota since Donald Trump became president. Officials say most of the immigrants have been natives of Somalia, which was one of the countries named in Trump’s attempted travel ban, but they’ve also come from Ghana, Djibouti, Nigeria and Burundi.
I blame global warming.
Any death is a tragedy.

Hell, no it’s not.
I’m gonna have a friggin’ party when one certain dumpy female politician finally checks out.
I was going to say it was Russia’s fault. But they are kind of the same thing...
/sarc
Understood.
That dumpy female spends her travel time in limousines, not walking to see her daughter; and she does not have a soul to pray for.
Nope... Actually, it’s Just not ready Trudeau’s fault... Come to Canada, we won’t reject you... he says... And so they do. And they suffer frostbitten hands and now death.
My suggestion to immigrants, wait until the first week of July to cross our border on on foot.
