Homicide investigators have been called to a park in Burnaby, B.C., after the remains of a burned body were found on Thursday.
Det. Lara Jansen of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the investigation is in its very early stages and the victim has not been identified.
Speaking at a news conference beside the park, close to a large housing development and the main campus of the B.C. Institute of Technology, Jansen says it's not known yet known if the victim is male or female.
The case is being handled as a suspicious death and Jansen says police will work with the BC Coroners Service to determine if the victim died in the park or if the remains were dumped there.
She says no suspect description is available.
Police would like to speak to anyone who might have surveillance or dashcam video of the area.
