Remains found last week on the shore of the Fraser River in Quesnel have been identified as those of a man who had been missing for nearly two months.

Darryl Leblanc Jr., 25, had not been seen since Dec. 30, 2019. On Tues., Feb. 25, a man who was hiking along the shore came across the remains and called police. With help from the RCMP's forensic identification section and the BC Coroners Service, they were determined to be Leblanc's, Mounties said Tuesday.

"The Quesnel RCMP would like to thank the public for the tips provided to the investigators during this investigation. Thoughts and prayers go out to Darryl's family and friends," RCMP said.
