Renfrew OPP are investigating a homicide. Police have confirmed the victim is a 60-year-old Horton Township male. At 5 p.m. on Aug. 15, Renfrew OPP issued a release with new information on a death on Cobus Road in Horton Township. An earlier report called it a suspicious death. On Aug. 13 at around 11:32 p.m., officers responded to the residence. Acting Sgt. A.M.(Angie) Atkinson would not confirm how the police were notified. “The officers responded and shortly after that the body was discovered,” said Atkinson. “I can’t provide any information on the name of the victim as it is not being released at this time,” said Atkinson. The post mortem examination took place on Aug. 15. “I believe it was completed in Ottawa,” said Atkinson. She would not confirm the cause of death or any information surrounding the circumstances of the incident. See POLICE, page 2
