1 year later, Manitoba RCMP seek details on murdered man’s death

Manitoba RCMP say there’s someone out there who knows what happened to Lyndon McIvor.

McIvor, 25, was last seen on the morning of Aug. 26, 2023 — a year ago to the day — after a night out with friends.

Police and members of the Lake Manitoba First Nation community searched for days before his body was found in a forested area on Aug. 31.

His body is believed to have been dumped in that spot, and police think there are people who have details they aren’t sharing.
