Saskatoon police are waiting on DNA tests to confirm whether or not a groom-to-be who went missing the night of his bachelor party is the same person who witnesses saw fall into the river shortly after midnight Feb. 2.

A police spokesperson said in a media release Friday morning that blood was found on the ice near the river’s edge the day after 28-year-old Gregory “Myles” MacIntosh was reported missing. DNA tests on the blood could connect the missing man to a possible river drowning.

MacIntosh was reported missing by his fiancée around 4 a.m. Feb. 2. He was celebrating his bachelor party that night and was last seen by his friends around midnight before he was reportedly kicked out of Outlaws Country Rock Bar, unbeknownst to the groomsmen.

About a half hour after MacIntosh was last seen, rescue crews were called after two witnesses reported seeing a person walking on the river’s ice near Rotary Park before appearing to disappear into the water just east of the Sid Buckwold Bridge.

Rescuers were unable to find a person or body in their search of the river and divers will not be able to enter the water until spring.

The family of MacIntosh’s fiancée told CTV earlier this week they believe MacIntosh, who is from Nova Scotia but living in Saskatoon, was the person seen falling into the river.

The groom-to-be’s phone died as he was calling a friend from outside Outlaws shortly before he went missing. His fiancée’s family said many witnesses told police he took a “pub crawl” bus — a bus that visits several bars in one night — to the corner of 8th Street and Lorne Avenue. He was reportedly kicked off for fighting and then seen walking towards the river, the family said.

Police confirmed there was a fight on the bus that night, but did not say if MacIntosh was involved. They did say, however, that one of two men involved in the altercation has yet to be found and that they have told the family all three incidents may be connected.

A memorial for MacIntosh has now been set up at the river’s edge near Rotary Park.

Police said they’ve yet to find evidence of banking or cell phone activity by MacIntosh since he was reported missing.

MacIntosh and his fiancée were scheduled to be married Feb. 15.
