SMITHERS — Mounties in Smithers are seeking the public’s help in locating a person not seen since yesterday (July 23).

The Smithers RCMP say that Roy Pawluck was travelling with this daughter from Whitehorse to Abbotsford when they stopped in Smithers on Wednesday with plans to stay for a couple of days.

“Roy left the campground on foot at around 12:45 p.m. and called a family member stating he was not going back to the campsite and was going for a walk,” says North District RCMP Cpl. Madonna Saunderson.

“Roy has some medical conditions that cause concern for family and police. Roy is not familiar with the area and does not have family or friends living nearby.”
