BODY FOUND BELIEVED TO BE MISSING MAN TIED TO AMBER ALERT

Quebec provincial police said Wednesday

they found a body investigators believe is that of a missing 71-year-old man connected to last week’s Amber Alert case. Sgt. Claude Denis said an autopsy will be conducted in order to determine if it is Yvon Lacasse, who hasn’t been seen since his car was stolen Thursday night in Lachute, Que. A six-year-old boy who had gone missing in Quebec with his father was found on Friday inside Lacasse’s vehicle in eastern Ontario. The father was arrested and charged with second-degree murder in the slaying of the child’s mother. Denis said police found the body in Arundel, Que., 100 km northwest of Montreal. Denis said investigators received a tip that led them there. “All signs point to it possibly belonging to Mr. Lacasse,” Denis said.
