RCMP PRESS RELEASE: Sudden Death of a Female Investigated in Inuvik

Yellowknife NT, March 6, 2015 – RCMP in Inuvik have completed the preliminary investigation of a sudden death of a female in the community of Inuvik.

No evidence of foul play has been gathered at this time; however the cause of death has not been determined.

The identity of the female will not be released by police at this time out of respect for the family.

RCMP will continue to work with the assistance of the Office of the Chief Coroner of the Northwest Territories.

No further update is expected until a later date.
