Human remains located by the Lennox and Addington OPP and the Underwater Search and Recovery Unit, have been positively identified as David Hannah, who was first reported missing in 1983.
During the recovery of a vehicle from the lake in January 2023, police divers located another vehicle. During the follow-up investigation in April, it was determined that this vehicle contained human remains and had been in the water for many years.
OPP Divers, assisted by OPP Urban Search and Rescue, OPP Marine Units, H.R. Doornekamp Construction and Dundee Marine, were able to recover the remains and the vehicle in early May.
The deceased has been identified as Hannah, who was 36-years-old when reported missing.
The investigation remains ongoing by members of the L&A OPP Crime Unit, under the direction of the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch, in conjunction with the Office of the Chief Coroner for Ontario and Centre of Forensic Sciences.
