Winnipeg police released photos and background information Friday of four missing men, in hopes of generating tips about their whereabouts.

Det. Sgt. Shaunna Neufeld said the four men are part of the missing persons unit cold-case file -- individuals who have been missing anywhere from one month to several years.

"These are four families who don't have answers," Neufeld said. "I can't imagine what they're going through, not knowing what's happened. Living with that, year to year."

Neufeld said there are 40 individuals reported as missing in the cold-case files, 75 per cent of them men. Neufeld said these four cases were chosen at random, to represent the missing men from each year for the last four years.

Anyone with information about a missing person is asked to contact the Winnipeg Police Service at 204-986-6250.
