Elderly Man With Alzheimer's Disease Found Dead
The body of Placide Trottier was discovered at around noon on Thursday near Antigonish, about 110 kilometres east of Truro. A searcher travelling aboard a Department of Natural Resources helicopter spotted something in the woods, said RCMP Sgt. Frank Skidmore. "We figure he went there the very first day, [it's just that] we couldn't find him.
He said searching for Trottier in the dense woods was "like looking for a needle in a haystack, and unfortunately we found the needle but not to our satisfaction." Trottier drove off on Saturday when his wife got out of their car at a gas station to ask for directions. His Honda Civic was found abandoned on a logging road, with its doors locked, at about 8 a.m. Thursday. Police said Trottier's body may have been lying where it was found for some time."
