West Vancouver police and the B.C. Coroner's Service are reaching out to the public to help identify a man found dead aboard a B.C. Ferry headed for West Vancouver last month.
The man was last seen alive walking around and talking to people in the Departure Bay ferry terminal on Feb. 19.
Police and paramedics attended to the Horseshoe Bay terminal just after 7 a.m. the next morning after someone noticed a man slumped over and unresponsive on the vehicle deck. Police say his death was not suspicious. He was carrying no identification.
The coroner describes him as a white male, between 50 and 60 years old. He had light bluegreen eyes and a fair complexion with light brown hair in a buzz-cut style. He stood five-foot-10 and weighed 160 pounds. He also might be identifiable by his tattoos: a large wolf bearing its teeth on his right forearm, a tribal arm-band on his right biceps and the Disney character Thumper on his right pelvic area. He was wearing a plaid jacket, jeans and Nike shoes the day he died.
Anyone who may know the deceased is asked to call the coroner at 604 660-2556 WVPD's missing persons unit at 604 925-7316.
