Global News
Carlos Tomas Aranda Burgoin hasn’t been seen or heard from since July 7, 2023.
The family of a Mexican National who went missing in Osoyoos, B.C., nearly two weeks ago has travelled to the Okanagan from Mexico to search for the 30-year-old man.
Carlos Tomas Aranda Burgoin hasn’t been seen or heard from since July 7, 2023.
“Carlos is a man that is very respectful, polite, and he came to Osoyoos just to look for an experience, for tourism, for his career,” said Carlos’ Father Octavio Aranda.
The family says they knew something was wrong when they lost contact with Burgoin, who had only been in Canada for one month.
“The truth is, his characteristics are very communicative with his parents, with all of us. We’re very worried because it is not normal that he doesn’t communicate for this long,” said Aranda.
“It’s been almost two weeks and we have no news, zero news of him since when the last time he was seen, and we’re desperate.”
Surveillance video captured Burgoin and his friends in a store the same day he was reported missing, wearing grey pants, a black and green hoodie and black running shoes.
According to the family, Burgoin was last seen in the Spirit Ridge Resort area.
