COQUITLAM (NEWS1130) – Coquitlam RCMP and the coroner are on Burke Mountain trying to identify some remains that were found last night.
Staff Sgt. Rob Lemon explains who found the body. “Some people spotted a vehicle up there and the body was found on a small trail.”
He can’t say when the remains will be identified. “It all depends on the conditions of the remains, I guess the forensic examination, before the coroner can release who they think it might be.”
Lemon won’t say if police found any hiking equipment or a note near the remains.
Right now foul play is not expected.
Investigators are expected to be there until sundown.
