Missing Repulse Bay kayakers found

The body of a 13-year-old Repulse Bay boy who went missing July 27 has been recovered.

RCMP say Andy Tagornak and his cousin Darryl Tagornak, 17, left the community by kayak last Saturday morning. The vessel was discovered several hours later, overturned in the bay.

The younger boy’s lifeless body was found following an extensive search of the area.

Search and rescue workers found Darryl Tagornak after Nunatsiaq News went to press this week.
