A body found on a Surrey roadside has been positively identified as a missing teenager, the Vancouver Sun reported.

The remains were found in an agricultural area of the city's Sullivan Heights neighbourhood. The report mentions "last month", but whether that refers to when the body was found or when it was identified remains unclear.

The identification closes the question of who was found, and it brings a missing-person case in Surrey to a painful end. For families and neighbours across Metro Vancouver, a young person's death in a local community is the kind of news that draws close attention.

Official details about the circumstances have not yet been published. This story will be updated as they are released.
