Human remains found in Happy Valley-Goose Bay on Friday have been removed from the scene and passed on to the Chief Medical Examiner.
RCMP say the remains were discovered off a trail north of Kelland Dive, and the scene was secured while officials conducted their investigation. Happy Valley-Goose Bay Ground Search and Rescue helped police at the scene along with the Canadian Armed Forces who supplied tents and heaters.
There is no immediate word on whether the discovery is linked to a missing person’s case in the area. 47-year-old Todd Penney, who was reported missing in September, was last seen in the area of Pottle Street, which runs parallel to Kelland Drive.
