Vancouver Police Say 37-Year-Old Missing Mother Not Expected To Be Found Alive

The Canadian Press, 25 Jan, 2018 12:34 PM
    VANCOUVER — Police in Vancouver spent hours searching an east-side home Wednesday night, looking for clues that could help them find a woman who has been missing for two weeks.
     
    Su Yi Liang, who is 37, was reported missing by her father on Jan. 10 after she failed to pick up her children from school and her grey, electric 2014 BMW i3 was found the next day in the city's northeast.
     
    Police consider her disappearance suspicious, but only released details of the case Wednesday after determining it's unlikely to have a positive outcome.
     
    Officers located Ms. Liang’s grey electric 2014 BMW i3. It was found at Cassiar and Charles Street near the Rupert Park Pitch & Putt on January 11th. 
     
    Const. Jason Doucette, a police spokesman, says evidence has been collected that leads detectives to believe Liang will not be found alive, although he won't say why.
     
    “Although we are treating this file as a missing person’s investigation and hoping for the best, we have collected evidence that leads us to believe that we won’t find Ms. Liang alive,” says VPD’s Constable Jason Doucette. “We are asking anyone who may have had contact with her, or who has information about her activities leading up to January 10th, to contact our detectives.”
     
    Investigators do not believe the public are at risk.
     
    Doucette says based on information uncovered over the last two weeks, officers executed a search warrant at Liang’s home and took a man into custody for questioning who has since been released.
     
    Police want to speak to anyone who may have seen Liang two weeks ago, or who may have seen someone driving her distinctive car.
     
    Anyone with information about the whereabouts of Ms. Liang, and her activities leading up to January 10th, as well as anyone who may have seen someone driving her BMW i3 until January 11th, is asked to contact the VPD’s Major Crime Section at 604-717-2500 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
