A thick line of yellow police tape surrounds a bush area in Prince Albert’s Crescent Heights area.

According to a media release on Tuesday from the Prince Albert Police Service, officers are investigating a death. Both the Major Crimes Unit and Forensic Identification Section remain on scene in the 1400 block of 15th Street East.

On Monday, at approximately 7:45 p.m, police were called to the area for a report of a deceased female. An autopsy is scheduled for May 28.

Police advised further update will be provided upon conclusion of the investigation or when new information becomes known.

The area is known to provide shelter for the city’s homeless community and bylaw officers have as recently as last week been seen there.

A forensics van was observed at the scene Monday night. (Submitted photo)
