Saskatoon police have declared the suspicious death of a 44-year-old man early Saturday morning as the city’s fifth homicide of 2015.
The man was found badly injured in the parking lot of the Northwoods Inn and Suites at the corner of Idylwyld Drive and 26ht Street. He was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries but was pronounced dead at the hospital at 7:02 a.m.
