RCMP believe they have found the body of a youth who went missing in the devastating Nova Scotia floods late last month.
Officials with the RCMP told reporters Wednesday that the province’s medical examiner still needed to positively identify the remains that were found a day earlier by a civilian who was out for a walk along the shoreline in Advocate Harbour, N.S., on the Bay of Fundy.
The youth was one of four people who went missing and were later found dead after two separate vehicles became submerged in the early hours of July 22.
“These floods have caused a tremendous amount of heartache and pain for our province, for sure. So, to the family today, I want you to know how very sorry I am, personally, but how very sorry the province is for what happened,” said Premier Tim Houston.
Last week, searchers recovered the bodies of two six-year-old children – identified in funeral home notices as Natalie Hazel Harnish and Colton Sisco – and 52-year-old Nicholas Holland, who was travelling with the youth.
Funerals were held earlier this week for the two six-year-olds.
