Abbotsford and Mission were on track to have their first murder-free years since 2001.

But now the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is probing a suspicious death Friday night in the the 5300-block of Bates Road.

Abbotsford Police Sgt. Judy Bird said firefighters were called out just after 10:30 p.m. where an SUV was fully engulfed in fire.

“When the fire was extinguished, a burned body was located inside,” Bird said in a news release.

“We are at the early stages of this investigation, however, this incident is being treated as suspicious.”

IHIT is looking for anyone who has dash cam footage to contact investigators at 1-877-551-4448.
