Homicide detectives are investigating a suspicious death that happened Monday in north Edmonton.
At about 3:30 a.m., police said patrol officers responded to a weapons complaint in the area of 127th Avenue and 118th Street.
A man was found suffering from a serious injury. Police said he was treated by EMS at the scene and taken to hospital where he later died.
Police did not release any information about the suspect or how he died. An autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday.
At least two police vehicles remained at the scene on Tuesday. A section of a sidewalk near a home was blocked off with police tape.
