In a statement issued Wednesday, BC RCMP identified Miguel Suzor as the deceased man police located Sunday on a forest service road that’s used to access Proctor Lake.
Police have released a photo of Suzor and are hoping to speak with anyone who has information about his whereabouts or actions on July 1 and 2.
People are also being asked to contact investigators if they were in the area of Silver Star and Rogers roads on Sunday and saw “anything of note” or have video from the area.
