He said the body was found along the shore near a water treatment facility on the Owen Sound harbour. Sornberger said the six-day search was unprecedented in Owen Sound, and officers had remained hopeful that Fitzgerald would be found alive. “Obviously this was not the outcome we were looking for, but it is an outcome.”During a news conference Friday, Owen Sound police Chief Bill Sornberger said the body of Pte. Andrew Fitzgerald was recovered Thursday following a search that involved Canadian Armed Forces, Ontario Provincial Police and Owen Sound police. “The generosity of the community in Owen Sound, even as commented to me by (Fitzgerald’s) parents before they departed...was overwhelming,” said Lillington.
