We have now finished searching the Bow River, and the surrounding banks, for any signs of people who may have gone missing.
Approximately 75 searches from agencies including the Calgary Police Service, Calgary Fire Department, RCMP, Calgary Search and Rescue Association, Cochrane Fire Services, Alberta Forestry and Parks and Community Safety Peace Officers, worked together throughout the day to search the Bow River area from Stoney Trail in the north to Carseland in the south. Additional partners included TransAlta and the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Although no human remains were located in today’s search, our Missing Persons Team remains steadfast in their commitment to finding every missing person. The conclusion of today’s search does not signal the end of these investigations, but rather, it provides valuable information to help investigators refocus their efforts. Each unsolved missing person investigation remains ongoing and we will continue to pursue answers for every missing person’s family.
We’d like to thank all partner agencies who participated in and facilitated today’s search, including those who volunteered their free time to aid our efforts. Because of their dedication to our community, investigators are now one step closer to finding missing Calgarians.
