A 16-year-old girl who was reported missing from North Vancouver has been found dead inside a Vancouver home, prompting a joint investigation by major crime and forensic teams.

Vancouver police say officers were called to a residence near East Pender Street and Renfrew Street shortly after 9 a.m., where the teen was discovered deceased. The girl had been reported missing the previous day, and North Vancouver RCMP had already launched a missing person investigation before the discovery was made.

Authorities have not released the teen’s identity, and the cause of death has not yet been determined. Police say it is still too early to confirm whether the death is linked to criminal activity.

Major crime investigators are now working alongside forensic specialists to examine the circumstances surrounding the case. Police are asking anyone with information that could assist the investigation to contact the Vancouver Police Department’s major crime section.

The incident has raised concerns about youth safety across the region, as police continue to stress the importance of timely reporting and community cooperation in missing person cases.
