TOROTNO – A man believed to be in his twenties was found without vital signs behind a plaza in Mississauga in what Peel Police are describing as a suspicious death.

Police were called to the location on Dixie Rd. near Eglinton Ave. on Monday afternoon.

Emergency crews say he was found with trauma to his body, but said it was unclear if weather played a factor in his death.

Four people have died this year in Toronto because of exposure to cold weather.

On Sunday morning, 29-year-old Mark Stroz was found unresponsive on his driveway and later pronounced dead. His body was found near his wheelchair, which was knocked over.

Police say his family last heard from him at 10 p.m. while he was out with friends.
