Canadian’s body was found in a foetal position. He was clad in a blue denim pants, cut to knee length, and a sky blue T-Shirt covered with blood that carried the slogan of Courts Furniture store.
His face was bashed in and it seemed also that he sustained lacerations about the body.

The consensus at the scene was that “He mussy thief somebody thing, dem beat he and he go lie down deh and dead.
Police arrived on the scene and later confirmed that an investigation will be launched.
