File Not Closed On Cold Case Crime

David Keddy
People in the Middleton area and RCMP investigators are remembering a brutal crime that occurred twenty-five years ago. On June 5th, 1987, the body of David Keddy was discovered floating on a wooden raft in an isolated part of the Annapolis River near an old railway bridge between Middleton and Nictaux.  Autopsy results showed that he had died as a result of foul play.  RCMP media-relations officer Sgt. Brigit Leger says back then and even now, there are few leads in the case.



Keddy was last seen alive during the early morning hours of June 3rd 1987, after visiting his girlfriend in Nictaux.  His older brother Garnet says its been difficult dealing with his brother's killing, not knowing the circumstances or who killed him.



On this 25th anniversary, the RCMP is urging anyone who has information to come forward, regardless of how insignificant the information may seem.  There is a 150-thousand dollar reward for information leading to the killer or killers of David Keddy.  You can contact the following:
