The RCMP said on Friday that they arrested homicide suspect Eric Wildman in Ontario.
Wildman, a 34-year-old man from the Rural Municipality of St. Clements, is wanted in connection to the early June disappearance of 40-year-old Clifford Joseph, also of St. Clements.
At approx. 5:30 am (Central) Eric Wildman was taken into custody by the @OPP_News @ a residence just outside the City of Belleville, ON. #rcmpmb thanks the media & the public for their support & assistance throughout the search.

On June 7, 2021, Selkirk RCMP received a report that Joseph was missing. Joseph’s 1997 Ford Ranger was found abandoned off Road 44 East later that day.
The RCMP Search and Rescue team was unable to locate Joseph in a search of the area where his car was abandoned.
On June 11, RCMP Major Crime Services took over the investigation after RCMP investigators determine that Joseph’s disappearance was "suspicious in nature."
Wildman’s vehicle was discovered that same day and was searched under a warrant on June 13.
Police discovered "firearms, police tactical equipment, police patches, and other items resembling police clothing" in Wildman’s vehicle.
Wildman was found outside of Belleville, Ontario.
