A 68-year-old woman from Minnesota who had been missing for three days was found alive over the weekend after being discovered nearly completely submerged in mud, according to her rescuers who spoke with local media.

The woman was located after an extensive search effort, though specific details about the circumstances of how she became trapped or the exact location where she was found have not been released.

Rescuers reported finding the woman almost entirely covered by mud, suggesting she had been stuck in the same location for the duration of her disappearance.

The woman's current medical condition and the circumstances that led to her becoming trapped in the mud remain unclear. Local authorities have not yet provided additional details about the rescue operation or the woman's status following her discovery.
