The BC Coroners' Service is also at the ready if needed.

Until the police rule out foul play, which can't happen without the scene being stabilized and made safe, it remains the RCMP at the lead of the investigation. Police and other stakeholders will gather at 3 p.m. today for a public statement on the matter.
