A body was spotted by an ATVer this weekend and police have since confirmed that the grisly discovery sparked a homicide investigation.
A man and his son were travelling along the 201 Forest Service Road towards Big White on Saturday when they spotted a body in a creek.
“We can confirm it is being investigated as a homicide,” said Cpl. James Grandy of the BC RCMP. “The investigation is in its preliminary stages, with no identified risk to the public.”
