Woman’s body found at Sasamat Lake not considered suspicious, police say

Port Moody police do not believe the death of a woman whose body was found at a popular lake Friday is suspicious.

Investigators were called to Sasamat Lake in Belcarra Regional Park on Friday to investigate the discovery.

Police confirm they found a 55-year-old Burnaby woman deceased at the scene.

“The matter is not suspicious and our condolences go out to her family and friends,” Staff Sgt. Brad Sheridan said in a media release.

Sheridan added that the incident is unconnected to the investigation of 48-year-old Trina Hunt, who has been missing from Port Moody since January.
