    SURREY, B.C. — Police in Surrey, B.C., are investigating after a body was found in a clothing donation bin.
     
    RCMP say a passerby called 911 at about 6:45 a.m. Tuesday after seeing the victim caught in the bin in Surrey's Guildford neighbourhood.
     
    The coroner's service says a man was pulled from the bin and was pronounced dead at the scene.
     
    The man's identity has not been confirmed.
     
    The cause of his death is still under investigation.
     
    Last September, a 45-year-old woman could not be revived after becoming wedged in the narrow, raised opening of a clothing donation bin in Maple Ridge.
