“Investigators are bringing this missing person’s case to the public’s attention again in the hope someone may have further information,” Penticton RCMP media relations officer Const. Jame Grandy said in the release.

RCMP describe Batoche has a 38-year-old Indigenous male, 6’ tall, 170 lb. with a stocky build black hair and a medium complexion.
