Bruce Andrew Forbes was 37 and living on Lansdowne Drive in Halifax when he was last seen on July 16, 2002 at a residence on Regent Road. His wife, Paula Forbes, reported him missing the next day. Forbes had a serious health condition that required daily medication, which he was not believed to have with him when he went missing. Investigators described the circumstances as suspicious and have strongly suspected foul play; it was also reported he was believed to have had a significant amount of money at the time.

The case has remained active for years, with police periodically renewing appeals for information. It was added to the Nova Scotia Department of Justice Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes Program, offering a reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. If anyone knew Bruce, his movements around July 16, 2002, or has information that could help, please come forward.
