Body found in Ben Lee Park
KELOWNA – RCMP say the body of a middle-aged man was found in Ben Lee Park Sunday evening.
A group of girls were playing basketball when one of them noticed a man lying prone, within the boards of the outdoor hockey rink around 6:30 p.m., April 26, according to Cpl. Joe Duncan.
The identity of the 45-year-old man has not been released.
Duncan says the death has been ruled as “sudden” but “nothing suspicious."
RCMP have turned the case over to the B.C. Coroners Service.
