The Calgary Police Service’s homicide unit is investigating after a man was found dead early Saturday morning in the northeast community of Mayland Heights.
Officers were called to an apartment building in the 1800 block of 14 Avenue N.E. around 2:30 a.m. for reports of a disturbance in one of the units.
When they arrived, they found the body of a man inside the building.
No one was initially taken into custody, and officers said they’re speaking with witnesses.
If found to be a homicide, CPS said the death would be the fourth homicide in Calgary over the past 10 days.
In a statement, Staff Sgt. Martin Schiavetta said it’s been an extremely busy week for the police.
Schivetta added that on top of dealing with homicide investigations, officers have also been dealing with a number of violent incidents across the city.
