Identity of deceased person sought

Update: We thank the public for their assistance. The victim has been identified. As the death is non-criminal in nature, no further information will be released.

We are seeking public assistance in identifying a man who was found deceased earlier this week in the northeast community of Horizon.

On Wednesday, May 17, 2023, at approximately 1 p.m., police were called for reports of a suspicious fire that occurred next to a commercial building located at 3805 29 Street N.E. Upon arrival, after the fire was extinguished, first responders located a deceased man.

All investigative leads to identify the man have been exhausted, including all traditional methods of identifying the deceased through the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. We are turning to the public for their help in hopefully generating new information that would help lead investigators to the appropriate next of kin.

Anyone with information about the man’s identity is asked to contact police by calling 403-266-1234. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers through any of the following methods:
