“There’s not much that we can say,” Acting Duty Insp. Brian Rayner said.

“The investigation is in its infancy. We are still gathering information so the scene will be held as long as it takes and I can’t really give you a definitive answer how long that will take.”

Traffic was shut down on 28 Avenue N.E. for some time while officers secured the scene.

An autopsy was scheduled for Tuesday.
