New Brunswick RCMP are investigating the suspicious death of Tony Vaillancourt 42, after his body was found by paddlers in the St. John River near Tobique Narrows on August 2nd.

Vaillancourt had not been in contact with family or friends since April 9, 2017.

An autopsy performed in September has lead investigators to believe the death of Tony Vaillancourt is suspicious in nature.
