“We extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time,” said Upper Fraser Valley RCMP Sgt. Krista Vrolyk in a media release.
Police said Thursday that McCullum was believed to be in the possession of firearms, and that officers were concerned for his well-being.
Police had initially descended on Chilliwack’s Columbia Valley area in large numbers, including a helicopter and an Emergency Response Team.
Investigators said an intensive search of the area revealed no sign of McCullum.
The investigation into McCullum’s death is now being handled by the BC Coroners Service.
