VERNON - Police investigated a sudden death in Vernon today, but have now turned the case over to the B.C. Coroners Service.

The B.C. Coroners Service was soon brought on to join the investigation into what is being called a sudden death.

“It was deemed not suspicious,” Moyer says.
He adds there is no danger to the public. The case has been turned over to the coroner.
The individual’s age and identity have not been released.
