Two bodies have been discovered in Osoyoos.
A police investigation has been launched by the Southeast District Major Crime unit with the assistance of the South Okanagan RCMP.
Officers have determined that the two individuals were known to each other, and there is no threat to public safety, said Osoyoos RCMP Sgt. Jason Bayda.
“This investigation is still in the early stages and more information will be available pending next-of-kin notifications,” said Bayda.
No other details are being released by police at this time, so it’s unclear as to where the bodies were found and when.
The News will update the story as soon as more information becomes available.
This situation comes after a man was shot in what police are saying was a drug-related incident in Naramata on Tuesday (Oct. 26).
Police descended on a home in Indian Rock just north of Naramata Tuesday morning after a 36-year-old man known to police was shot and called for help. No arrests have been made in that incident.
A vehicle fire on Gammon Road in Naramata was reported at 8:30 a.m., and is currently being investigated to determine whether it is related to the shooting.
