Mother of indigenous woman found naked on Thunder Bay street criticizes police response

The mother of a 28-year-old woman found naked and crying for help late one night in Thunder Bay, Ont., says police are ignoring a crime because her daughter is a First Nations woman and an addict.

Robin Sutherland, 31, said he and another man responded to a woman's calls for help on Clavet Street around 12:15 a.m. on March 10.

"We saw a naked lady approaching us and she was quite distressed, screaming for help, and so she came up to us and I gave her my sweater to warm her up," Sutherland said.
