Officials with Correctional Services of Canada Prairie Region are reporting the death of an inmate at the Bowden Institution.

At the time of death, officials say the inmate had been serving an indeterminate sentence, which commenced on March 9, 1967, as a dangerous sexual offender.

The inmate’s next of kin have been notified.

As in all cases involving the death of an inmate, the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) will review the circumstances. CSC policy requires that the police and the coroner be notified.
