The Integrated RCMP/HRP Major Crime unit is investigating the homicide of Andrea Lynn King.

On January 1, 1992, 18-year-old Andrea King flew to Halifax, N.S. from New Westminister, B.C. to do some travelling and to find some work for a period of time. Ms. King called her sister from the Halifax airport stating that she had arrived and was en route to Halifax where she intended to stay at a hostel. She was to phone her family the next day with an address where she was staying so they could forward a purse she had forgotten. She was not heard from again. On January 4, 1992, Ms. King’s family reported her missing to the RCMP in Surrey, B.C. Despite a year long missing person investigation being conducted in both Halifax and New Westminister, B.C., no trace of King was found and police were unable to positively identify anyone who had contact with her after her arrival in Nova Scotia. On December 22, 1992, her skeletal remains were located in a wooded area in Lower Sackville N.S., near the Sackville Business Park.

Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Integrated RCMP/HRP Major Crime unit at (902)490-5331.

This case is part of the Nova Scotia Department of Justice Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes Program.
