ERIN - The OPP are taking an new approach to try to get to the bottom of an unsolved murder.

On December 17th the body of 65 year old Frederick John Hatch was found in the town of Erin. Hatch was last spotted in Ottawa and police have no idea how he got to the town of Erin.

A $50,000 reward has been offered to find Hatch's murderer. As a means to assist this ongoing investigation, an unprecedented approach is being undertaken to encourage anyone with information regarding this homicide to contact the OPP. Beginning on Monday August 29, 2016, a black and white OPP van with pictures of Mr. Hatch and details pertaining to this investigation will be positioned in communities from Erin to Nepean. This van will serve as a moving billboard and will be moved weekly eventually making its way along Highway 7 communities in Central Ontario.
