The search for a 71-year-old kayaker who has been missing since Friday has been suspended.
Crews started looking for avid kayaker Zygmunt Janiewicz after he didn’t return from his paddle on Okanagan Lake.
Police said Janiewicz left from Kelowna Paddle Centre in the Pandosy neighbourhood on Friday afternoon.
A boat and life jacket were found on the shore near Watt Road later that same day.
