Calgary homicide investigators are trying to determine how a man who was found dead earlier this week ended up in a suitcase in an industrial complex.
Officers were called to the Manchester area in the city’s southwest at about 3 p.m. Tuesday for reports of a body in a suitcase.
Police say investigators are questioning someone who was at the scene.
An autopsy has identified the man as 62-year-old John Sidney Taylor.
Police say the cause and manner of Taylor’s death remain undetermined, pending further tests, but it’s being investigated as suspicious because of the way his body was disposed of.
They believe Taylor died elsewhere and was transported to the location.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 13, 2023.
