Cold Case: Mary Schlais

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) ―

It's been more than 33 years since a young Minneapolis artist left her apartment to hitchhike to an art show in Chicago.

The body of 25-year-old Mary Schlais was found in a snowy ditch three hours later, 90 miles east of the Twin Cities in Dunn County, Wis.

Schlais had been stabbed more than a dozen times. One of the key clues is a black and white photo of a man found in Schlais' apartment.

The man in the photo has never been identified and police have appealed for help from the public to help solve the brutal murder that happened February 15, 1974.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Detective Craig Koser at the Dunn County Sheriff Department at 715-231-2911.
