BREAKING: Search Ends For Cunningham, Body Found


Police in Ontario believe they have found the body of a man wanted in the alleged confinement of a 16-year-old boy in Upper Chelsea. Ontario Provincial Police say the body of a 30-year-old man was recovered near a 2003 Hyundai Elantra that had been recovered on a logging road in northern Ontario. Police say the body has not been positively identified, but they believe it to be Wayne Alan Cunningham, who faced charges of sexual assault and forcible confinement after a boy alleged he was held captive by two men at a home last month. The cause of death is under investigation by the Coroner's Office. The car was found Wednesday about 19 kilometres off the highway in Greenstone, about 250 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Cunningham's co-accused, David James Leblanc, was arrested Sunday after officers received a report of a man wandering with no shoes and light clothing in near-freezing temperatures.
