RCMP searchers have found human remains in eastern P.E.I. that police believe are connected to the disappearance of Tyson MacDonald, and two young people have been arrested in the case.
MacDonald, 17, was last seen Dec. 14 in the Caledonia area of Kings County. His disappearance was at first considered a missing persons case.
Police conducted extensive air and ground searches earlier this week after the RCMP said the investigation had changed to a criminal one, though at that point they did not say why.
On Wednesday morning, the RCMP said human remains had been found early the same day in the Milltown Cross area, about 11 kilometres south of Montague.
“The remains are believed to be those of Tyson MacDonald, although we are awaiting positive identification by the coroner’s office,” said RCMP Supt. Kevin Lewis, acting commanding officer for P.E.I.
“Several charges are expected to be laid later, including homicide.”
