At around 4:45 p.m., the West Shore RCMP were called to Glen Lake after human remains were discovered in the water by the public.

A View Royal fire boat and dive team were called in to assist with the recovery.

In a release, West Shore RCMP said the family have been notified and the file is still under investigation.

“Our deepest sympathies are with them at this time. This file is still under investigation. Although there were no obvious signs of foul play, investigators continue to work alongside the BC Coroners Service to determine what caused Joshua BENNETT’s death,” said Cst.
