RCMP are trying to negotiate with a junior high student from St. Pierre who left school last week and has not yet returned home.

The 13-year-old boy exited his school building on Tuesday and has not been seen by his parents since, but he has been heard from. Police note they have made intermittent contact with him and are working with his family to get him home safe. The name of the boy is not being disclosed at this time.

Anyone with information that may be useful to this investigation is asked to share it with the St. Pierre RCMP. Meanwhile, the boy himself is being encouraged to reach out to the police as soon as possible.
