Prince Albert police say a death at a known encampment is being treated as a homicide.
On Saturday, officers responded to an incident in the 300 block of 18th Street East where they located an injured man.
A 42-year-old succumbed to his injuries.
It marks the second death at a Saskatchewan encampment in less than a week after Regina police say a woman died after a suspected overdose at a camp in the Queen City.
“The Prince Albert Police Service is aware of the unique challenges such environments can present during an investigation,” PAPS said in a release.
“Officers are employing protocols and approaches to address these complexities effectively.”
Anyone with information about the incident or video surveillance from the area is being asked to contact PAPS or Crime Stoppers.
