Kamloops Mounties are investigating a suspicious death in North Kamloops.
A body was found by police near the alley behind 170 Carson Cres. at about 10 a.m. on Friday.
Officers were called to the area for a report of “suspicious circumstances” and after speaking with witnesses and conducting an initial investigation discovered human remains, RCMP Staff Sgt. Simon Pillay said in a press release.
“We do know this is a criminal matter and not someone who simply died from exposure,” Pillay said. “The identity, gender, age, race are all unknown at this early stage. We expect there are witnesses out there who may be able to help us.
We are asking anyone with information about who this person is to please contact Kamloops RCMP. Kamloopa Serious Crime Unit has taken over the investigation and is seeking the assistance of the public.
Anyone who may know the deceased or anything about the circumstances of the death, or saw any suspicious activity in this area, is asked to contact the Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3000.
