 Nearly 30 years after his disappearance, a Kitchener, Ont., man solved his own cold case when he suddenly remembered his identity. 
 
 Edgar Latulip was 21 years old when he vanished from the southern Ontario city. 
 
 But this Wednesday, Waterloo Regional Police confirmed he was found roughly 130 kilometres away in St. Catharines, Ont., and is doing well. 
 
 It was revealed that Latulip had suffered a head injury shortly after arriving in the city years ago and "effectively forgot who he was." 
 
 But in January of this year, Latulip told a social worker in St. Catharines that he remembered his name, putting the gears in motion for his return home. 
 
 At the time of his disappearance, police believed Latulip, who has a developmental delay, took a bus and travelled to the Niagara Falls area. Even though they were on the right track, they were unable to find him. 
 
 Years later, police were tipped off that he may have been spotted in Hamilton, Ont., but they still could not track him down. 
 
 "It's the only case, that I know of, where we've been able to find someone who has been missing for this period of time," Det. Const. Duane Gingerich, of the Waterloo Regional Police, told CTV Kitchener. 
 
 Police say a DNA test on Friday confirmed his identity and a reunion with his family is in the works. 
 
 "I did speak with one of the family members yesterday and today, and … they're obviously very happy about it, and they’re making plans to get together with Edgar and speak with him further," said Gingerich. 
 
 Latulip's mother, Silvia Wilson, said she is overwhelmed by her son's return, but she hasn’t spoken with him yet. 
 
 With a report from CTV Kitchener's Allison Tanner ||||| CTV A 32-year-old man who went missing in 1977 following an Ontario barn fire on the property seen here has been found alive and living in Oklahoma, according to Ontario Provincial Police. 
 
 A Canadian man who was declared dead after vanishing 37 years ago has been found alive and living in Oklahoma. 
 
 Ontario Provincial Police say Ronald Stan, who was 32 when he went missing, was recently discovered living under the name of Jeff Walton after vanishing on Sept. 29, 1977, CTVNews reported. 
 
 Stan was suspected of dying in a barn fire, southwest of Toronto, which left firefighters painstakingly digging through the smoldering remains without any sign of his body. 
 
 "I remember that one quite well because we dug through dead pigs and so-on with our boots on, and had done our very best to find human remains," retired firefighter Jim Walsh told CTVNews. "And there was none in that barn." 
 
 CTV Retired firefighter Jim Walsh, pictured right, recently recalled sifting through the remains of the burned barn for Ronald Stan's body in September 1977 without any luck. 
 
 Nearly a decade later, after finding no trace of the missing man, an Ontario court declared him dead in 1986. 
 
 Fast forward to last July, authorities say a routine audit of his mysterious disappearance linked Stan to a 69-year-old man living more than 1,000 miles south. That man was positively identified as Stan. Police did not identify where in Oklahoma he was found. 
 
 "I can't speak to his motives," Const. Laurie Houghton with the Middlesex County Ontario Provincial Police told The Star of Stan's possible reason for disappearing. 
 
 CTV Ontario Provincial Police Middlesex County OPP Const. Laurie Houghton, pictured, said that charges are not expected to be filed against Stan, who has been living under the name of Jeff Walton. 
 
 Houghton said his family has been informed of his discovery and that he is not facing criminal charges in Canada. 
 
 As for how they found him this time around, she credited new technology for cracking the case. 
 
 "There's a lot that's available to us now for investigative tools that wasn't available to us back in 1977. As a result, we were able to connect the dots, essentially, and lead us to the state of Oklahoma," she told The Star. ||||| Please enable Javascript to watch this video 
 
 MIDDLESEX COUNTY, Va. -- The man arrested in connection to the disappearance and death of once missing Virginia mother TerriLynn St. John is now charged with her murder, according to WTVR. 
 
 Alvin B. Keyser, 23, has so far been charged with first-degree murder and concealing a dead body. 
 
 St. John's body was found at about 9 a.m., roughly one mile from her home on Mill Wharf Road in Middlesex. Her body had been covered with leaves and left along Barricks Mill Road in Pine Top, Virginia. 
 
 Keyser knew the 23-year-old mother of two and the father her children, according to authorities. The extent of their relationship is not yet known. 
 
 Keyser, investigators said, led detectives to St. John's body Thursday morning. 
 
 “Keyser stated to detectives he confronted St. John at her residence about statements that were made about Keyser," Middlesex Sheriff's Major Michael Sampson in a statement. "Keyser stated that St. John struck him, and he struck her back." 
 
 At some point St. John got into a van that Keyser was driving, but officials didn't clarify whether or not she was physically forced into the vehicle. 
 
 Investigators said Keyser admitted that he later pushed St. John out of the van, continued to hit her, and strangled her until she stopped breathing. 
 
 “Keyser then stated he loaded her in the van and put her body in the woods down from her residence,” said Sampson. 
 
 The 23-year-old also admitted that certain items at the original crime scene were his, according to investigators. 
 
 Keyser is being held without bond at the Middle Peninsula Regional Security Center. 
 
 He will make his first court appearance on Monday, March 5. 
 
 The Middlesex Sheriff's office said they investigated Keyser after someone posted on social media about a statement Keyser had made. 
 
 "The closure on this is not good closure, but it is closure," said Sampson, who thanked multiple law enforcement agencies, social media tips, and the media for their help with information. 
 
 At a press conference, the sheriff's office said more charges are expected and more people will be interviewed. 
 
 The Search for TerriLynn 
 
 St. John's family reported her missing after she did not show up for work Tuesday morning. 
 
 When relatives went to her home to check on her, they discovered her children — ages 3 and 1 — unharmed, but home alone. 
 
 Family members said they believed St. John struggled with someone in her front yard, near her car, around 7:30 a.m. Tuesday. 
 
 “They looked through the woods and you could definitely tell there has been a struggle beside my daughter’s car,” her father, Terry St. John, said. “Jewelry was all around, like it had been broken off, her cell phone was found in the bushes.” 
 
 Investigators have interviewed at least four persons of interest about St. John's disappearance. St. John was living with her boyfriend, who is not the father of her children, at the time of her disappearance. Earlier, police said the boyfriend was among the persons of interest being interviewed. 
 
 Police said the father of St. John's children lives in the area, but wasn't around when St. John disappeared. 
 
 Those persons of interest have been cooperative and submitted DNA samples to investigators, Sampson said. 
 
 That evidence was sent to the crime lab in Richmond where it is being tested. 
 
 Police are still gathering information and are asking anyone with information about the case to call the Middlesex Sheriff’s Office at 804-758-5600.
– Almost 30 years after he went missing from a group home in Kitchener, Ontario, at the age of 21, Edgar Latulip remembered something very important last month: his name. Police say the 50-year-old, who has a developmental delay and functions at a child's level, has spent the last 30 years living in St. Catharines, around 80 miles from where he disappeared, CTV reports. From what investigators can piece together, Latulip took a bus to Niagara Falls in September 1986 and ended up in St. Catharines, where he suffered a head injury and "effectively forgot who he was" until this year, when he told a social worker he remembered. Before his disappearance, Latulip had attempted suicide at least once, leading to fears he may have killed himself. Police officer Duane Gingerich, who investigated the disappearance, tells the Guelph Mercury that he's thrilled that Latulip has turned up alive. "I had hopes that he was out there somewhere," he says. "For us as investigators, this is great, this is awesome. It's satisfying because most of these cases don't turn out this way. You expect the worst when a person is missing for that period of time." A DNA test confirmed Latulip's identity and police say a reunion with his mother, who moved to Ottawa years ago, is being arranged. In a 2014 interview, she told the Mercury she was still haunted by the disappearance. "This is always at the back of my mind. Having an answer would mean closure," she said. (A California hospital recently identified the man it had called "Garage 66" for 16 years.)
