Officials launched a large search, which was called off after several weeks.
The B.C. RCMP Southeast District’s Major Crime Unit (SED MCU) was called to assist in the investigation in February. RCMP later asked the public for dashcam video in the hopes it may lead to his discovery.
Last month, RCMP said Tyner’s disappearance is considered suspicious and “may involve criminality.”
