  • IHIT identifies victim

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is identifying the victim in what it has classified as a suspicious death.

It says a 58-year-old man was found with serious injuries on Klein Lake Forest Service Road in Egmont on Saturday and while first responders provided first aid, he died of his injuries.

I-HIT says it is now identifying the man as Henry Doyle of Vancouver in hopes of advancing its investigation.

It says investigators have learned that Doyle had travelled to the area on his dirt bike, which was located near his body, and is asking anyone who was in the area or saw anything suspicious to contact I-HIT.
