Jul 12, 2011 | 11:34 AM

RCMP identified a body found in Northern Saskatchewan late last week as 21-year-old Joey Yooya.

The young man from Black Lake was found dead last Thursday, in the woods just east of the community.

Yooya had been reported missing two days earlier. An autopsy determined he died from a gunshot wound.

The Mounties have a potential suspect in custody on another matter and the investigation is ongoing.
