''Durham police say that they have “exhausted all traditional means” of identifying a homicide victim who was located following a house fire earlier this month.
The male victim, believed to be approximately 25 years old, was found dead following a suspicious fire at a residence on Court Street near Olive Avenue and Simcoe Street on March 6.
One day later police classified the case as a homicide, after an autopsy revealed that the victim had suffered trauma to the body unrelated to the fire.''
On Wednesday, Durham police released a composite sketch of the victim, who they said may have went by the name ‘Ox.’

So far no arrests have been made in the case and no information has been released about possible suspects.''

A man found slain inside an Oshawa house that was set ablaze last week remains unidentified.
''Durham Regional Police say officers responded to the fire at the home on Court St. – near Bruce St. – shortly before 10 a.m. on March 6 after receiving a call to assist the Oshawa Fire Department.
“Oshawa Fire was on scene for a house fire and was able to extinguish the blaze,” police said in a statement Wednesday. “One person was located in the home deceased.”
