HALIFAX – RCMP in New Brunswick say the body of a second man who didn’t return from a fishing trip has been found.

The next day, the Tracadie Fire Department recovered an overturned boat matching the description of the boat the men were using.
Police say members of the Fisheries Department located a body in the water near Portage Island around 8 a.m. on Wednesday.
The body was identified as Aldéric Thibodeau.
The body of Léandre Thibodeau was found on Saturday.
