Police have discovered the body of a woman believed to be that of a 36-year-old Canadian woman missing from the Byron Bay area for the past fortnight.
Around 10.45am this morning (Wednesday), police and SES members were searching bush land near Butler Street, Byron Bay, when they found the body.
Although identification is yet to be confirmed, it is believed it is the body of Ms Perkins.
Police have established a crime scene as they continue investigations in the circumstances surrounding her death, which they don’t believe was suspicious.
A report will be prepared for the information of the Coroner.
