Police Believe they have Located Body of Suspect

The OPP believe they have found the body of a man wanted in the alleged confinement of a 16-year-old boy in Nova Scotia.

Police say the body of a 30 year old man was recovered near a 2003 Hyundai Elantra that had been recovered on a logging road in northwestern Ontario.

Police say while the body has not been positively identified they believe it to be that of Wayne Alan Cunningham, who faced charges of sexual assault and forcible confinement after a boy alleged he was held captive by two men at a home last month.

They say the cause of death is under investigation, but foul play is not suspected.

The car was found Wednesday about 19 kilometres off the highway in Greenstone.
