Police say human remains discovered in Sydney have been identified as a 62-year-old man reported missing last November. The remains were discovered April 15th by people walking in a wooded area off Ash Street. Cape Breton Regional Police have confirmed they belong to 62-year-old Murdock Daniel McCharles who hadn’t been seen since leaving his home on Bentinck Street on November 25th. Police have not released a cause of death but say an autopsy determined McCharles was not the victim of foul play.

Search Continues for Missing Sydney Woman
The search resumed yesterday for a missing Cape Breton woman missing since Easter weekend. A ground search began last Wednesday after a burned out car belonging to 59-year-old Debbie Hutchinson was discovered on a road not far from her home in Sydney. Bad weather forced the search to be delayed late last week. On, Saturday, ground search and rescue scoured the area near where the vehicle was found. Hutchinson was last seen on April 14th.
