Police In Vancouver, Ottawa Want Help In Finding Boy Who Disappeared 5 Years Ago

The Canadian Press , 08 Oct, 2014 12:21 PM
    VANCOUVER - Police in Ottawa will be teaming up with the Vancouver Police Department to investigate a tip that a teenage boy who disappeared from the capital city five years ago today may be on the West Coast.
     
    Each department held a news conference, saying Justin Rutter was 14 when he was last seen by his family in Ottawa on Oct. 8, 2009.
     
    They released an artist's drawing of what Rutter would look like now, at age 19.
     
    Supt. Don Sweet of the Ottawa Police Service says the teen had a slim build, with short light brown hair and brown eyes when he went missing in 2009.
     
    Sweet says someone knows where the boy is or what happened to him and police need the public's help to solve the mystery.
     
    Ottawa Police are offering a reward of $5,000 for information confirming Rutter's whereabouts or leading to the arrest and prosecution of whoever is responsible for his disappearance.
