Homicide investigators are looking for links between a domestic incident and the death of a 59-year-old Maple Ridge man early Monday morning.
Integrated Homicide Investigation Team Sgt. Jennifer Pound says Mounties were called to the home in the 11000 block of Carshill Street just after 2 a.m. PT. Paramedics performed CPR on the unnamed victim but could not revive him.
Police believe the man was involved in a domestic dispute just before he died and Pound says investigators want to know if that played a part in the suspected homicide.
An autopsy has been scheduled and officers remain at the home, about 40 kilometres east of Vancouver. The victim's name has not been released and Pound says no arrests have been made.
