Man found by RCMP after failing to return to Colony Farm psychiatric hospital

Coquitlam RCMP say they have located a man who failed to return to Colony Farm Forensic Psychiatric Hospital.

Adam Yvan Gorges was reported missing from the hospital just after 6:30 p.m. Friday, and was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant Saturday for being unlawfully at large.

On Sunday morning, RCMP said the 29-year-old had been located.

RCMP on Saturday asked the public to help find Gorges, but warned he might behave in a way that presents a risk to himself or the public and asked people to not approach him if he’s spotted.

Gorges has gone missing from the hospital before, having failed to return in June 2019.

In July 2015, he was found not criminally responsible by reason of mental disorder for a charge of break and enter with intent to commit an offence, which took place that April in Kelowna.
