Police in the Netherlands say a man found collapsed on a street in that country three years ago is not a Canadian who went missing in British Columbia in the 1990s.
Online speculation claimed the man is John Russell Kenny of Ontario, who went missing in Vancouver in 1994 and would now be about 67.
But Amsterdam police say an investigation with Canadian police shows Kenny is not the mystery man.
Dutch police previously said the man known as “Lucky” wasn’t carrying ID when he suffered a brain hemorrhage or stroke, leaving him unable to communicate.
