Eugene Kim mystery deepens as car, human remains found

The baffling case of Eugene Kim, a 38-year-old husband and father from the Bayview Ave. and Royal Orchard Blvd. area of York Region, deepened overnight with word that a car belonging to Mr. Kim has been found in Algonquin Park and that it contained human remains. OPP located the car Thursday about 3:30 p.m. after getting a call about an abandoned vehicle in Laurier Township, about three kilometres northeast of South River. It was found in a wooded area on private property, down a trail leading into the woods. No identification of the remains has been made. The case began on Monday, October 2, 2017, when Kim did not return home as he usually did. Instead, his family received a series of texts from his phone saying he would be there soon. That did not happen. Then a few days later, word that he had been seen in Algonquin Park, a place he was fond of, sometime after that. Reports at the time that Kim was seen with someone when he entered the park are now gone from reports, apparently discounted.
