Durham Regional Police are seeking information from the public after human remains were found in a shallow grave in Pickering.

Homicide investigators were called to a rural area after human remains were discovered in a shallow grave in Pickering on Sunday, Aug. 21, at around 2:30 p.m.

The burnt remains were found in the area of Concession Road 8 and Sideline 20 by a citizen. The body was discovered about 500 metres off Concession Road 20, confirmed DRPS Sgt. Joanne Boroluss.


Forensic Investigators were called to assist and are working with the Office of the Chief Coroner and a forensic anthropologist to recover the remains. A post-mortem will be conducted to determine more details.
