Comox Valley RCMP continue to search for 45-year-old John Wesley (Wes) Edwards, who hasn’t been seen for more than two months.

Police said he hasn’t been seen or heard from since March 20, and it is unusual for him to be out of contact for an extended period of time. Family and friends are concerned.

RCMP first put out an alert about Edwards in early May.

Many people who know Edwards have been interviewed by police to no avail, according to the Comox Valley RCMP Major Crime Unit.

He is known to travel to Alberta and might have headed there, police said.

Edwards is described as five-foot-nine and about 145 pounds with blond/grey hair.
