A suspicious death in Courtenay last month has led to one man being charged with second degree murder.
37-year-old Cameron McIndoe was arrested on July 9 and remains in custody.
Plainclothes commander of the Comox Valley RCMP, Staff Sgt. Jonah Todd, said no further details can be shared with the matter now before the courts.
“Our Major Crime Unit has worked diligently to uncover the full circumstances of what occurred and that work continues as the matter proceeds through the courts.”
Police received a report of a sudden death at a residence on June 20 and officers secured the place for several days to conduct a thorough forensic examination.
An autopsy confirmed the death was a homicide, according to the RCMP.
The accused McIndoe and the victim were known to each other, and there is no indication of a broader risk to the public.
Police are not revealing the name of the victim out of respect for those affected.
