Second Man Charged in Cape Breton Homicide Investigation

Ryan Joseph Pike faces second-degree murder and robbery charges in the disappearance of Justin MacDonald, missing since July.

Cape Breton Regional Police have charged Ryan Joseph Pike, 36, with second-degree murder and robbery in connection to Justin MacDonald's disappearance.
Justin MacDonald, 36, was last seen on July 7 at an Irving gas station in North Sydney, Nova Scotia, and his case was classified as a homicide in November.
Earlier this month, police arrested Mitchell George McPhee, 38, charging him with manslaughter, robbery, and assault in the same case.
MacDonald's vehicle was discovered roughly 25 kilometers from where he was last seen, but his body has not been found despite ongoing searches by family and friends.
Authorities have stated that the investigation is active, with potential for further charges and arrests, and are urging anyone with information to come forward.
