More than a month after the disappearance of this Lyonnais who went hiking in the Bauges massif, DNA expertise indeed confirmed that the body found was that of Vincent Prat.
The DNA expertise on the body of a man found in June in the Bauges Massif, in Savoie, made it possible to certify that it is Vincent Prat, a father of Lyonnais disappeared in early June during a hike.
At the time, several dozen volunteers had crisscrossed the Bauges massif to find the body of Vincent Prat. Finally, it had been found near a rocky bar. If the location and its equipment corresponded well to those of the missing man, it took several weeks for DNA to speak.

The father, from the Montchat district, in eastern Lyon, had left to run on June 9 alone from the Méry sector, overlooking Lac du Bourget. He had not given a sign of life since. A call to witness to the gendarmerie was then launched. He had been seen in the afternoon on the cameras of the Alpage restaurant Le Chalet du Sire. But relatives had questioned this identification, the clothes worn by the man visible on the images that do not correspond to those of Vincent Prat. She had then asked anyone who crossed her to report himself. An important mobilization was then organized, via a WhatsApp discussion in particular.
