Tanisha Shaylene Laporte, 14, was last seen Oct. 10, 2012.

Law enforcement officials are asking for the public’s help in finding two missing girls.

RCMP received word on Saturday that Annabella Mousseau was missing. The 11-year-old reportedly left her residence on the Dakota Tipi First Nation, located a couple of kilometres south of Portage la Prairie, on her bicycle and hasn’t been seen since.

She is described as five-foot-two, 120 pounds with brown hair with blonde highlights. She was last seen wearing jeans, a dark jacket and a dark hat. Her bicycle is blue.

Meanwhile Winnipeg Police said they are looking for Tanisha Shaylene Laporte, who has not been seen since last Wednesday.

The 14-year-old is described as five-foot-four with straight long brown hair and a pierced nose. She is about 120 pounds and was last seen in around 1 p.m. on Oct. 10 in the North End neighbourhood wearing black yoga pants, grey runners and a black hoodie.

Anybody with information on either of the girls is asked to call the Winnipeg Police Missing Persons Unit at 204-986-6250.
