“There is no threat to public safety. The death has been deemed not suspicious,” said MacLean. “The investigation is ongoing. We are awaiting autopsy results.”
A passerby had alerted The Border Pulse to a heavy police presence at the business shortly before 4 p.m. Multiple RCMP officers, Community Peace Officers and paramedics responded to the scene.
The business remained open throughout the response.
