WINONA, Minn. – Police hope for a break within 24 hours in the mysterious disappearance of a Winona women five days ago. Madeline Jane Kingsbury, 26, the mother of two pre-schoolers, drove off to work Friday morning and hasn’t been seen since. Jay Rasmussen, deputy police chief, confirmed again that a major lead seems to be a report of Kingsbury’s vehicle, or one very similar, on the Highway 23 corridor south from Winona into Fillmore County. Highway 23 isn’t anywhere near Kingsbury’s usual route to work. The mini-van has not shown up anywhere. Rasmussen renewed the request for property owners, especially in Fillmore County, to check for anything unusual. “They know their property best,” he said.
