CALGARY — Calgary police warned that response times would be affected yesterday after three deaths in the span of just 12 hours.

The homicide unit is investigating the death of a man who was stabbed just south of the downtown core yesterday morning.

Police say it doesn’t appear to be linked to Saturday night’s shooting in Saddle Ridge that left one man dead and another in life-threatening condition.

The homicide unit is also investigating after a body was found in Fish Creek Provincial Park yesterday morning.

According to police, the body was engulfed in flames when officers arrived, but they say they don’t know yet known if the death is criminal or was a suicide.
