Investigation ongoing for boy who went missing near B.C.-Alberta border in 2025
Police say just over 70 public tips have not led to Darius MacDougall, and investigators continue reviewing leads after the search ended.
- On Monday, Alberta RCMP marked the one-year anniversary of Darius MacDougall's disappearance, confirming the investigation remains ongoing despite the active search concluding.
- Darius MacDougall vanished on September 21, 2025, while walking near the Island Lake Campground about four kilometres south of Crowsnest Pass, triggering an 11-day active search in remote terrain.
- Rick Jan, a search expert, said at the time it would be "very, very remarkable" for a person to survive the bush, as searchers consulted with wilderness survivability physicians.
- To date, RCMP has received over 70 tips from the public; every tip was fully investigated, but "unfortunately, none have led to finding Darius," police reported.
- Search and Rescue Alberta provincial training manager Adam Kennedy stated in 2025 it was their belief Darius was no longer alive, while Alberta RCMP noted his "disappearance continues to weigh heavily on his family and those who know and love him.
