(Oct 23d)

A man who was reported missing to RCMP in August 2025 has been located deceased.

On August 11th 2025, Clarenville RCMP issued a public request for assistance to locate a missing 37-year-old Caplin Cove man who was last seen on May 15, 2025.

This week, with the assistance of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary and the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, RCMP Newfoundland and Labrador confirmed that a body found in the St. John’s area was that of the missing man.

Criminality is not believed to be a factor in his death at this time.

To respect the privacy of the man and his loved ones, his name and photos have been removed from the earlier post, and no additional details will be shared at this time.

RCMP Newfoundland and Labrador extends its deepest sympathies to the family, friends and community of the deceased.
