A Coroner has found a wanted man likely died from exposure, after hiding from police upon crashing a stolen car.
Joel Linwood ran off after a car accident on Old West Coast Rd in Canterbury on July 18, 2021. It’s believed he hid in scrub in the nearby Waimakariri River.
His remains were found in a shallow pool by the river by a hunter almost a year later, on June 5, 2022, not far from where the accident happened.
