Police discover human remains connected to Simcoe, Ont., murder investigation

Written by on October 17, 2025

Provincial police say they’ve found human remains believed to be connected to an ongoing murder investigation in Simcoe, Ont.

Police say the remains were found in a wooded area off Highway 6 in Haldimand County around 6 p.m. Thursday, and an autopsy to confirm the identity and cause of death is scheduled for Friday.

Anyone who was in the area on Oct. 5 between 10:30 p.m. and 12 a.m. is asked to contact police if they observed any suspicious activity.

Last week, police arrested a 45-year-old man on a second-degree murder charge after a woman was found dead in a Simcoe home on Oct. 5.

OPP later confirmed the suspect was the son of the dead woman.

Police have said they are searching for a 49-year-old man in the investigation who is missing and was last seen on Oct. 4.
