A Canadawide arrest warrant has been issued in connection with the Markham couple that went missing earlier this month.

Investigators with York Regional Police's homicide unit posted a report on September 28 that revealed Quoc Tran, 37, and Kristy Nguyen, 25, had been missing since September 18 and were last seen at 5:30 p.m. that day. In a September 21 release, YRP wrote that the two were last seen in the Highway 7 East and Warden Avenue area at 4:50 p.m.
