Missing Man Manitoba

The RCMP in Manitoba are searching for a man believed to be missing in Whiteshell Provincial Park.

Early Sunday morning, police say they received reports of someone who seemed to be struggling in the water near the campground in Big Whiteshell Lake.

Later in the morning, a canoe was found floating in the lake with no-one around.

The canoe had been submerged with a few personal effects around.

The Winnipeg Police Underwater Search and Recovery Unit has been brought in to help search the lake for the missing person.

Police say a 20 year old Winnipeg man has been reported missing by his family, but his name is not being released at this time.
