Body believed to be missing boy found in Peace River
RCMP say a body discovered on the Peace River is believed to be that of a two-year-old boy who went missing near the Canfor Bridge last Friday.
Earlier today, Peace River RCMP were called to a bridge that was under construction on the Peace River off 94 Street in the Town of Peace River.
“We were notified around 9:30 this morning that a body had been recovered in Peace River earlier today,” said Constable Melanie McIntosh with the Grande Prairie RCMP. “The body was found by construction workers working on a construction berm near the Peace River.”
The body was found approximately 220 KM away from where the boy was last seen.
