More than a year after a man was found dead in the North Saskatchewan River Valley, Edmonton police are seeking the public’s help in identifying his remains.
The remains of an unidentified man were found on October 4, 2020 in a camp in the Victoria Park area.
Edmonton police said his body was not found during the River Valley Annual Livestock, which took place the same week and are being conducted to locate any missing persons or potential human remains.
