Update: Missing teenager body's found

Update: Sad news, Shane Fair's body was found. Read the story

Toronto Police have confirmed a body pulled from the water at Ontario Place yesterday is that of missing York University student Shane Fair.

The teen's body was pulled from Lake Ontario near the spot where he vanished two weeks ago — dashing the hopes of relatives and friends who had organized waterfront searches and plastered the downtown with posters appealing for help finding him.

Sgt. Darrin Little said a passerby spotted the body in the water near the Ontario Place dome around 4 p.m.
