A Saskatchewan family grieving the kidnapping and murder of their son is asking for his remains to be returned after they were stolen along with their truck from a Calgary residence.

On October 29, Shannon Garrioch was in Calgary visiting the father of her late son Allan, who was murdered in early 2020. Garrioch said she was in the process of moving to Calgary.

On October 30, he woke up to find his truck containing Allan’s ashes missing.

“The ashes are in a cream urn with silver trim,” he said in an email to CTV News. “Any type of contact is appreciated.”

Garrioch said he contacted police, who discovered some of the contents of his truck in a dumpster, but not the urn containing his son’s ashes.

“We just want our son’s remains back,” she said.

On February 25, 2020, Allan Douglas Garrioch, who lived in Humboldt, Saskatchewan, was reported missing after losing contact with his family.

Ultimately, three people were convicted of multiple charges, including murder, forcible confinement, burglary, and assault with a weapon, among others.

Garrioch’s remains were discovered in the rural municipality of Bayne, Sask.

Allan’s remains were stolen along with this vehicle on October 30 in Calgary.

CTV News has reached out to Calgary Police for additional details.
