My friend's uncle is missing in BC near Kamloops.

There's a good amount of information at this link Man Missing Traveling Between Falkland & Kamloops, BC – Bjorn Collnes, 72

His van was found, but his bike is missing.

According to police, Bjorn Collnes was last seen on Monday at 1:30 am while travelling from Falkland to Kamloops. Collnes was driving a brown mini-van which was recovered by police on Thursday, just west of Westwold.

Family have explained that a blue mountain bike, which is power by a small motor on the back, was missing from the van. It is unknown if Bjorn is still with his bike.

Collnes is described as a 72-year-old Caucasian man with blue eyes and brown hair. He stands at 5'7" and was last seen wearing a black Harley Davidson shirt, gray and black camo shorts, and running shoes.

Westwold (where the van was found) is only about 12 to 15 minutes west of Falkland.

I wonder what Bjorn was doing in Falkland, who he was possibly seeing there, and if it was in fact Bjorn himself who drove the van from there to Westwold.

The article in the opening post states that he was last seen on September 9. Wouldn't that be the date that he went missing instead of September 12, when his van was found?

Police are also still looking for a navy blue, older style mountain bike that is powered by a small motor, which was in the back of the mini-van at the time of his disappearance.

Police believe he could have left the area on the bike, but that’s unconfirmed.
