The RCMP Serious Crime Unit has been activated and police say they’re investigating the death of a 42-year-old man after his body was found earlier this month.
Lee Harland’s body was located near a woody area, by railway tracks near Kennedy Street, and Comox Road, in Nanaimo and police say based on the evidence the investigation is being treated as a homicide.
They say Harland appeared to be living in Nanaimo for a while, and he was living a transient lifestyle while living in homeless encampments across the city.
Police are asking if anyone has information, or dashcam footage, on the homicide to contact Nanaimo RCMP’s non-emergency line at 250-754-2345.
