Police trying to identify a body found in Mississauga

Officers from the 11 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying human remains found in Mississauga.

On Tuesday, November 16, 2010, at approximately 3:00 p.m., human remains were found in a wooded area near Mississauga Road and The Collegeway, across from University of Toronto Mississauga Campus.

An autopsy has revealed that the remains are that of a male, 35-60 years of age, and approximately 5’8” tall.

The logo, which reads “Old Time Hockey League, est. 1999, Champions 2006”,
