Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 23 Jul, 2024 10:15 AM
  • Another body found in English Bay

Vancouver police say two women have been found dead in English Bay since Sunday, and they're wondering if the pair are somehow linked.

The V-P-D says one woman's body washed up on shore near the Kitsilano Yacht Club on Monday, but it's not known how she died or whether or not it was a crime. 

The department says another woman's body was found on Sunset Beach on Sunday morning, and her cause of death is also not known. 

Vancouver police say neither of the women have been identified, and the department's major crime and forensic investigators are now looking into the women's deaths.
