Prince George, B.C. - While the RCMP forensic team has left the Pinewood Road property near Isle Pierre that was the subject of four days of searching for evidence in the disappearance of Nicole Hoar, there are still nearly a dozen   E-Pana investigators in Prince George following up on tips.

“We have received more than a hundred tips” says Corporal Annie Linteau.   She says the “E-Pana” investigators who are still here  are working with the two “E-Pana” officers who have been stationed here  for more than a year.

Working out of the North District RCMP office,  the two examine tips and all missing persons reports to see if they should become part of the investigation of disappearances and deaths of 18 women.

The four day search  was expanded to include an  unauthorized dump north west of the   5 acre residential site.   At that dump, investigators examined a yellow pick up truck. “We examined the vehicle for evidence and have the VIN, but   the ownership of that vehicle has not been established yet” says Linteau.

Investigators have not yet said if they have found any evidence or human remains on the 5 acre parcel.    They have also not yet  indicated if they have  a name to put to the description of a man who may  have more information on Nicole Hoar’s whereabouts after she was last spotted at the Mr. G’s on Gauthier Road on June 21^st of 2002. That man is described as having been in his 50’s at the time of Nicole’s disappearance. He is said to have had a scruffy appearance, long dark hair, a thin face, sunken eyes and a jagged scar on the left side of his neck.
