Cash reward to solve McCann case reaches $60,000

EDMONTON — A special cash reward being offered to solve the disappearance of Lyle and Marie McCann has reached $60,000


C


The reward is being offered through Crime Stoppers, and is separate from a $2,000 reward the organization offers for anonymous tips that lead to a similar conclusion.

To collect the $60,000, which was raised through community donations, the person coming forward must make their identity known to police and speak directly with investigators.

Lyle McCann, 78, and his wife Marie, 77, were last seen July 3 fuelling their motorhome at the Superstore in St. Albert as they headed for British Columbia. It was the last time their credit card was used.

On July 5, their motorhome was discovered engulfed in flames at the Minnow Lake campground, about an hour southeast of Edson. Their SUV, which they normally towed behind the motorhome, was missing.

They were reported missing on July 10 when they failed to show up at a planned meeting with their daughter in Abbotsford.

On July 12, firefighters responded to a log house fire near Niton Junction, about 30 minutes east of Edson along Highway 16.

Four days later, a local resident discovered the McCann’s SUV abandoned in the bush near Carrot Creek, 45 minutes from where the motorhome was found, and less than five minutes from Niton Junction, where the log home burned.

Travis Edward Vader, 38, was initially picked up by RCMP as a “person of interest” in the couple’s disappearance. He was named a suspect in the case at the end of August.

Investigators have blocked off a range road in the area while they search, and while they are remaining tight lipped on who owns the property, neighbours in the area say the property at the end of the blocked off range road belongs to a person who was once a close friend of Travis Vader.

According to the video at the above link, the property is on Range Road 120, off of Hwy 16. It sounds like they plan to be there into the weekend and there is a photo of a police command post trailer set up there. I noticed from the arial helicopter shot, that there is a large pond on the property.

Well done Ruby on selecting these clips. The search area is just a short distance from the last LE search site at the Nojack camp site. I fear there is a connection.

Thanks Zort. This property belongs to someone that was a friend of Vaders at one time.

They say this property involved in the current search belongs to Al Campbell. They also say this property is for sale and hasn't been occupied for awhile. I've searched the MLS.ca site but can't find the property for sale. Must be a Sale by owner ..does anyone know for sure?
 
Also..I copied this from a facebook site - "I just talked to someone from the area who said Al Campbell, the property owner hasn't been seen or heard from in months. This is of course just local gossip, but apparently he is definitely a buddy of TV, though people think he is now down in Southern Alberta." It has been publicized on the news that the propery belongs to Al Campbell. And the media have also reported that the owner of the property is an old friend of Vader's ...I wonder where Al Campbell is now?
 
One neighbour said someone's been hauling stuff off the property ever since Vader was arrested.

When told that RCMP are searching the property, the neighbour said: "They're too late."

RCMP are expected to stay on the property into Saturday when a civilian search-and-rescue team is to join the effort.
 
My husband and I looked at a property on RR 124 right by this Campbell's place at the beginning of this summer. Oddly I have had this inkling to call the realtor in the last month bc of the McCanns and tell him to have someone look around the woods on that property bc it is so isolated, thick bush except for 10 acres with a mobile home on it and several buildings. Keep in mind the bush out there can be very thick and there is a dugout with water in there, these can be quite deep. Some of it impossible to walk through unless cleared. I loved the idea of having a property out there but it did irk me to be sooo isolated even for a weekend getaway.

If the town talks ( and it does in small towns) anyone would have known that property was vacant with two neighbours far off. I never followed up on that call thinking it would seem too far fetched for a realtor to consider. Now it turns out it may be only 2 Range Roads away where the McCanns may be found.

We didn't buy the property and now it is off the listings. It had been for sale for 1.5 years. I have put in an email to the realtor to see if it is still for sale and then I'll ask what "news" is going on around the community if he knows of any and I will post it.

Another thing, wasn't the McCann's car when found, covered in mud? Driving into these remotes property's after rain would guarantee that mud, we had so much rain here this summer, and we did go throughout the property we were looking at with a quad. The rain left many areas of water some as high as 2 feet in the wooded trails.
 
IMO47,

It wouldn't hurt to report this directly to LE. Let them check it out.
