The dead man has not been identified. Police have prepared two composite sketches.

They say the man was black, 25 to 35 years old, six-feet-two and 238 pounds.

RCMP are also seeking information on a white cube van believed to be connected to the investigation.

They have released two photos of the GMC van, which has the words "A.D & Sons" and "Moving & Cleaning Service" on each side.

Police have already identified and spoken with the registered owner.

Now they want to hear from anyone who saw it in their neighbourhood or on the road between Sept. 11 and Sept. 13.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Strathcona County RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
