Jul 27, 2023 | 9:37 AM

Prince Albert Police are asking the public for help so they can end a nearly 36-year-old missing person case.

Samuel LaChance went missing on July 29, 1987. He was last seen leaving a residence in the West Hill area of P.A.

“I know somebody knows something and I wish they would tell us; they do not have to give their name. We just want peace of mind and to give our Father a proper burial. We think of him often,” read a statement from police on behalf of LaChance’s daughter.

He went missing almost six years to the day that Robert Wiggins went missing in the city. His case also remains unsolved to this day.

Anyone with information on LaChance’s disappearance or activities on the day he went missing is asked to contact P.A. police at 306-953-4222 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
