Clearwater RCMP seek public assistance in locating Daniel Ritchie

Share On

A 35 year old man from eastern BC was supposed to return to work in Valemount this morning, but there's still no sign of Daniel Ritchie, one day after RCMP appealed for help finding him.

Clearwater Mounties issued a release yesterday confirming Ritchie was last heard from on October 13th.

He rented a Ford pickup 10 days ago, while his regular vehicle was in for repairs in Kamloops, and the truck was due to be returned over the weekend, but instead was found abandoned on a forest service road in a remote area south of Clearwater.

RCMP want to talk to anyone who has information about Ritchie, described as Caucasian, with brown hair and eyes, about 5'8" and roughly 175 pounds.
