The search for an 11-year-old Calgary boy, who had been missing since July 16, is over.
Calgary police announced at a Wednesday afternoon media briefing that they have found the body of a small boy who they believe to be Parker.
"On Tuesday, we received information from a member of the public who located evidence consistent with the clothing Parker was last known to be wearing. Search teams were deployed and as a result of those efforts, the body of a small child has been located.

Parker was the subject of a massive 11-day-long search, involving hundreds of police officers, search and rescue experts and community volunteers.
