Manitoba RCMP have identified human remains found in a wooded area just east of Oakbank on Monday.
With the help of the Springfield Police Service and CP police — as the body was found near rail lines — the RCMP investigation and a forensic examination have confirmed the remains of missing Winnipegger Roy Robert Ledoux.
Ledoux, who was 48 at the time of his disappearance, was first reported missing in October of 2009.
