Police say they are investigating a sudden death of a man in his 30s after he was found Friday morning near a central Hamilton park.
Investigators are seeking help from the public asking residents in a social media post on Monday whether they had “heard a disturbance” between 11 p.m. on Thursday night and 10 a.m. Friday morning not far from Carter Park at Victoria Avenue South and Young Street.
“A 38-year-old male was located in a wooded area and pronounced deceased on scene,” the service said in a release on Monday.
