The RCMP and the Calgary Police Service are investigating after human remains were found in Banff National Park on Tuesday evening.
In a news release on Wednesday, the CPS said officers were surveying an area near a rest stop off the eastbound Trans-Canada Highway east of Banff after receiving information that human remains may be in the area.
Investigators came across the remains while examining and preparing a plan to search the area.
The remains are believed to be related to a Calgary homicide investigation, but more information will be given after an autopsy on Thursday, CPS said.
