Nearly two years after his disappearance, police say they suspect foul play in the case of a missing man from Comox Valley, B.C.
John Wesley Edwards, also known as ‘Wes,’ was last seen in Courtenay in eastern Vancouver Island on March 20, 2020. He was 45 years old at the time.
“Investigators have been actively following up on tips, interviewing witnesses and gathering evidence since the initial missing person report was received in 2020,” said Cpl. Matt Holst of the Comox Valley RCMP in a news release.
