RCMP say they’ve exhausted all avenues in their search for a missing 34-year-old man, and are asking for the public’s assistance.

 

Yvon Shawn Guignard was last seen near the Thompson General Hospital on November 28th.

 

His mother Wendy Anderson-Guignard, who lives in St.Catharines, Ontario, says he’s not taking his medication for schizophrenia and is worried about him:

"We’d love to get a phone call to say that he’s been admitted to the hospital there. Our family would for sure make a trip down there just to be with him. I’d love for him to be brought back home, but whatever happens right, I just desperately would love to hear from him".

 

Anderson-Guignard says Yvon, or Shawn as he’s known by friends, found himself in Thompson after leaving his hometown in the summer to look for work. She says she’s grateful for support received through social media:  

"My daughter and I posted on facebook here locally, and in such a short time it made it’s way to Thompson, Manitoba. We were overwhelmed by all the response that we’ve got, even just hearing from somebody to say ‘Oh I know Yvon, he spent the summer here’"

 

RCMP say Guignard should not be approached as he may be in medical distress.

Anyone with information is asked to call Thompson RCMP at 677-6909 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.
