The search for a missing woman in Vancouver has come to a tragic end.
In a release, Vancouver police say the remains of Dr. Tracy Pickett were found in the Southlands neighbourhood.
A search was launched for the 55-year-old on September 27 after she was reported missing from her home by a family member.
