Detectives are making slim progress in a three-year-old cold case in Squamish.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the body found inside a burned vehicle in 2017 has now been identified as US resident Davis Wolfgang Hawke, also known in the local climbing community as Jesse James.
I-HIT Sergeant Frank Jang says the 38 year old died of a gunshot wound before being left in the burning truck, which was found on a forest road just north of Squamish on June 14, 2017.
Few other details, such as when Hawke came to Canada or what he was doing in Squamish, are still under investigation and anyone who knew Hawke is asked to contact homicide detectives.
