Police have found a body believed to be that of 19-year-old Cape Breton soldier Pte. Andrew Fitzgerald.

Around 3:45 p.m. ET Thursday, members of the Ontario Provincial Police underwater team found a body near the water treatment facility on the eastern shore of Owen Sound Harbour.

Fitzgerald, who is from Cape North, N.S., graduated from an infantry course last Friday at 4th Canadian Division Training Centre in Meaford, Ont., about 30 kilometres from Owen Sound.

His parents had flown from Cape Breton to attend the ceremony.

Fitzgerald was scheduled to fly to Gagetown, N.B., that Saturday to join a regular force infantry unit, but was last seen in civilian clothes near a gas station in Owen Sound around 4:30 a.m.

Police and military members have been searching for Fitzgerald since.

A coroner has ordered a post-mortem examination at the London Health Science Centre, the Owen Sound Police Service said in a news release Thursday evening.

Owen Sound police will hold a news conference Friday at 11 a.m.
