They say a person was found in medical distress and despite efforts to save them, they died at the scene.

RCMP Sgt. Zynal Sharoom says the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has taken over the case, which is still in its early stages.

Officers will be canvassing the neighbourhood for witnesses.
