The coroner's office has been called in after human remains were found in Richmond.
Corporal Sherrdean Turley says the mounties were called in around 10:00 Saturday morning to a grassy marsh area.
"The remains are skeletal in nature which leads our investigators to believe they have been there for some time."
Turley says the Coast Guard assisted with getting investigators to the body.
A work crew surveying the area initially found the remains -- the exact location is not being revealed for investigative purposes.
