Saskatchewan RCMP believe foul play is not a factor in the death of Jaxon MacDonald.

The body of MacDonald, 15, was found on March 16 on an island on Madge Lake in Duck Mountain Provincial Park.

He had left a cottage at around 12:30 a.m. on March 14 to head to another cottage a block away in the Jubilee subdivision.

His mother, Danielle Wilson, told Global News that she had received a text from her son to pick him up and said he wasn’t there when she arrived.
