The search for Raymond Flett is winding down in Thompson, and expanding into Winnipeg.

Sergeant Bert Paquet says there have been sighting of the missing Split Lake man in Winnipeg.

He says they are not suspecting foul play: "Not at this point, we’re still calling this a missing person investigation. Obviously we’re consulting with major crimes unit as the case progress, but they have certainly not taken it over and we’re still treating this as a missing person with the hopes that we will find Mr. Flett alive and well".

Flett was last seen in Thompson on July 14, and was the subject of a  search led by Split Lake residents.

Anyone with information is asked to call Thompson RCMP at 677-6909.
