Two bodies have now been found within hours of each other, outside city limits.
RCMP responded to the discovery around 3:00 p.m. Friday afternoon near Beiseker.
Sergeant Patrick Webb tells 660News, the body was found wrapped in a blanket.
“This was in a field near the intersection of Hwy 566 and Range Road 274, now on attendance, they found that there was a body and it was fully wrapped in a blanket. That scene has been secured by RCMP members.”
In the meantime, the first body was found in a ditch northwest of Okotoks Friday morning around 8:30 a.m.
RCMP found the victim not wearing any clothing and are still trying to figure out his identity.
The victim is described as black, with short cropped hair and a faint outline of a moustache.
He is about 6′ feet tall and weighs about 200 pounds.
Webb adds there is no evidence right now to suggest the two deaths are related.
