Four men from Mexico working in a Vernon orchard vanished without a trace five months ago. On June 26 they left the farm and hadn’t been seen or heard from since.
In a news release issued Wednesday morning, RCMP confirmed the four men, Uriel Huizar Soto, Issac Jimenez Bautista, Juvenal Rios Binedo and Juan Manual Sanchez Gallegos, had been safely found, but aren’t releasing any further details, including where they were located.
“I’ve been told by my communications division that we [aren’t releasing] any other information other than that they were found,” says Vernon RCMP Cst. Jocelyn Noseworthy.
Cst. Noseworthy says that’s common practice for a missing persons investigation, to protect privacy.
