Prince George, B.C.-  The  discovery  of the body of a male on Sunday  off  Highway 97 near  Pine Centre Mall,  is still   being  classed as a suspicious death.

Prince George RCMP  will not have  any definitive  picture  of how the man died until  an autopsy   has been completed.  Those results could be available  by  the end  of this week.

As for the identity of the male,  RCMP are not  likely to be  releasing  the name  of the deceased male  even  with a positive identification unless   publicly identifying  him would   be  of assistance to their investigation.

The  body was discovered  just before 11 Sunday morning.
