Red Deer RCMP say death in Coronation Park not suspicious

Oct 18, 2018 | 10:35 AM

Red Deer RCMP have cleared the scene of a sudden death reported Thursday morning in Coronation Park.

At this point in the investigation, Mounties do not believe the death is suspicious, and there is no risk to the public.

The deceased male is being transported to Calgary for autopsy by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for Alberta, which has taken carriage of the investigation. The date for the autopsy however has not been set yet.

Police are working to notify the deceased man’s next of kin and will not be releasing further information at this time out of respect for that process.
