UPDATE: RCMP Say Boy Confined For Up To Two Weeks

Police investigating a case of alleged forcible confinement in Upper Chelsea say a 16-year-old boy was held against his will for up to two weeks. RCMP say their preliminary investigation determined the teen was kept captive for a period of 10-14 days. The Mounties are appealing for the public's help to find 47-year-old David James Leblanc and 31-year-old Wayne Alan Cunningham, who they have charged with forcible confinement and sexual assault. Police say the boy was taken to hospital and is safe. Sgt. Alain Leblanc says the public should be on the lookout for two vehicles. Leblanc says one is a grey 2003 Hyundai Elantra with a Nova Scotia licence plate of FBP 233. He says the second is a brown 2002 Chevrolet Venture van with a Nova Scotia licence plate of EZG 581.
