It’s not murder.

That’s the official word coming from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team this afternoon.

According to Sgt. Bari Emam, the homicide team’s role in the investigation into the suspicious death of a woman in Burnaby has ended.

As previously reported by the Burnaby NOW, on Monday evening, Burnaby RCMP responded to a report of a badly injured woman in an apartment building in the 5100 block of Irving Street. The woman later died of her injuries, prompting Mounties to call in the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

Police have determined the victim did not die as a result of foul play.

Burnaby RCMP will conduct the remainder of the investigation.
