John Wesley “Wes” Edwards has been missing for over a year now, and police in the Comox Valley aren’t slowing down their search.

If you see Edwards or know where he may be, you’re urged to call the Comox Valley RCMP at (250) 338-1321. But if you wish to remain anonymous, call Comox Valley Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also submit a tip online.
