RCMP say they have called off the water and ground searches for a missing Shediac, N.B., kayaker, but say their investigation continues and they will pursue any new leads.
Luc Bourgeois, 34, has been missing for three days. The Shediac man departed on a solo fishing trip on Thursday afternoon in a kayak from the Pointe-du-Chêne wharf.
"Teams have been searching tirelessly the last couple of days and have covered a lot of area with no success," RCMP said in a statement Sunday.
Bourgeois is described as about five feet six inches tall and 170 pounds, with long curly brown hair, a beard and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing black shorts, a blue and grey life-jacket, a Bass Pro Shops hat, sunglasses and black Under Armour sandals, according to police.
A Facebook group created by Bourgeois's family remains active with nearly 6,000 members and is asking for people to help search for him.
