A former Calgary realtor is wanted for questioning in connection to the gruesome murder of a Los Angeles area swimsuit model.
American authorities are looking for Ryan Alexander Jenkins and say he might be on the run.
The 31-year-old Calgary man is a person of interest in the investigation into the death of Jasmine Fiore.
Her body was found stuffed in a suitcase on Saturday August 15th in Buena Park, California.
The 28-year-old was strangled and dumped into a trash bin southeast of Los Angeles.
Police say Jenkins reported Fiore missing several hours after police found her body.
He had moved to L.A. to be a contestant on the VH-1 reality show "Megan Wants A Millionaire."
On the show's website Jenkins' bio states he is an investment broker.
It's not clear how Jenkins knew Fiore, but the entertainment website TMZ reported the pair met at a Las Vegas strip club and got married two days later.
CTV News spoke with police in Buena Park and they confirm they've been looking for Ryan Jenkins since Saturday, but have not been able to locate him.
Jenkins is a Canadian resident, and it's believed he may have fled the U.S. and returned to Canada.
Police believe he was the last person to see Fiore alive.
Jenkins was seen with the victim in San Diego last Friday, the night before she was found murdered.
They are also looking for a vehicle, a white and black Mercedes that might have belonged to Fiore, that Jenkins was also seen driving.
At this time, Jenkins is not considered a suspect but investigators say his behaviour has raised many questions. Jenkins has not returned any of their calls.
Jenkins was a former Calgary realtor, and according to one website, he once owned Skyhomes Calgary in Kensington.
In what appears to be a more recent website posting, Jenkins listed himself as an employee with Concrete Equities, a Calgary real estate investment firm.
Late Tuesday night, TMZ reported on its website that Jenkins' publicist said he will co-operate with police, but is currently speaking to his lawyer.
Buena Park Police are asking anyone with information on Jenkins' whereabouts to contact them at 714-562-3992.
