Search and vigil held for Indigenous teen who has been missing for nearly 2 months
The loved ones of 14-year-old Samuel Bird, an Indigenous teen that went missing on June 1, are seen at a vigil in Rossdale Park on July 27, 2025. (CTV News Edmonton/Connor Hogg) Friends, family and community members gathered at Rossdale Park for a vigil in support of a young Indigenous man who went missing nearly two months ago. Fourteen-year-old Samuel Bird was last seen on June 1. 'We all have children, grandchildren, cousins, nieces, nephews, and it's hard to imagine if they weren't there to pick up the phone today,' said one speaker at the vigil. 'That's what makes it most difficult: not knowing.' Bird Friends, family and community members gathered at Rossdale Park for a vigil supporting 14-year-old Samuel Bird, an Indigenous teen who went missing on June 1. (CTV News Edmonton/Connor Hogg) Sacred songs were sung and a smudge ceremony was held. Police say Bird was last seen leaving his home to visit a friend in the Canora neighbourhood. During a press conference last weekend, Bird's mother Alanna said she knew something was wrong when he didn't respond to her calls or texts. 'Sam always messaged me. He always told me where he was,' said the mother. Earlier Sunday, a group of volunteers led a search for Bird that went along 170 Street up to around Anthony Henday Drive in hopes of finding something that would help them locate the teen. BIRD Fourteen-year-old Samuel Bird has been missing since June 1. (CTV News Edmonton/Connor Hogg) Bruce Samsin said he hopes to fill the gaps where the police can't. 'They don't really have the resources for all of this,' Samsin told reporters. Edmonton police confirmed with CTV News Edmonton that there have been videos circulating of Bird being physically assaulted after he went missing. The videos were also sent to Bird's mother. 'How awful that they are being sent these violent videos and images,' said an email from the Edmonton Police Service. 'EPS is aware of these images circulating online depicting violent events. Investigators are working to determine the source and authenticity of the images and as such, at this time, the EPS cannot confirm whether this is connected to the missing 14-year-old-youth, Samuel Bird.' Samuel Bird Samuel Bird, 14, has been missing in Edmonton since June 1, 2025. (Courtesy: EPS) Bird is described as 5'8' tall with a slim build. He has brown hair and brown eyes and may have a black-eye and stitches on his cheek and nose. Police say he is known to frequent West Edmonton Mall and is familiar with the city's west end and southside. Anyone with information is asked to contact EPS at 780-423-4567. Anonymous tips can be submitted through Crime Stoppers. With files from CTV News Edmonton's Connor Hogg

‘Standing hand-in-hand': South Asian community uniting amidst targeted crimes
Buttar Gusharan, the general manager and journalist at My Radio 580, speaks to CTV News Edmonton on July 27, 2025. (CTV News Edmonton/Connor Hogg) Ahead of a town hall Monday that will address a spike in crimes against Edmonton's South Asian community, Buttar Gusharan said people standing together in solidarity. 'We are standing hand-in-hand and we are willing to face any challenge,' Gusharan told CTV News Edmonton Sunday. Gursharan is the general manager and a journalist at My Radio 580. He said while his community is staying strong, many are trying to stay under the radar to avoid getting targeted. 'We have lost 14 accounts on the radio directly,' said Gusharan, adding that South Asian businesses are afraid of having their name, telephone number and locations public. 'I know many people who are afraid.' Many in the community are looking to move out of the country because they do not feel safe, Gusharan said. The goal of the town hall is to strengthen the relationship between police and the community and ensure members feel comfortable reporting crimes to police. While he hopes the town hall will fortify that relationship, Gusharan says more needs to be done. 'The government needs to come up with some solution very soon,' he said. 'In a peaceful country like Canada, there is lawlessness, and that scares me.' Edmonton police announced the town hall earlier this month after a surge in crimes against the city's South Asian community. Police say the incidents are believed to be tangentially related to Project Gaslight, a series of 40 arson, extortion and shootings targeting South Asian homebuilders in 2023 and 2024. Investigators believe the current scheme is being run in a similar way to Project Gaslight, with higher ranking gang members ordering younger members to commit the crimes. It is believed that one of the players could be the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. The India Counter Terrorism law enforcement agency said that gang's leader, Bishnoi, operates his syndicate from jails in different states, in India and through an associate in Canada. Gusharan said the threats will often start with extortion over the phone where the victim is asked to provide a large amount of money. The perpetrators will go so far as to contact employers, colleagues, friends and family in order to get money from the victim. B.C. Premier David Eby has called on the federal government to designate the gang as a terrorist organization in Canada. When the Edmonton police held a town hall last year, Gusharan said it was a 'game changer.' 'Lots of people came out to support, the police gave us all the information and there was trust built,' he said. The town hall will be held Monday at 7 p.m. at the Southwood Community League. Capacity is limited and anyone who wishes to attend is encouraged to register online. With files from CTV News Edmonton's Connor Hogg and Karyn Mulcahy
