City Police Expected To Release More Information on "Suspicious Death"

Police Chief Bill Reid may have more to say today about the suspicious death of prominent local business man Richard Oland.

The body of the 69 year old was found Thursday morning in his Canterbury Street office.

Sgt. Glen Hayward with the city police says a news conference is tentatively scheduled depending on what information came forward over the weekend and what can be publically released.

Visitation for Oland continues today at Brenan's Funeral home from 2 until 4 and from 6 until 8, with the funeral being held tomorrow at noon at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Rothesay.

In a news release sent yesterday, Oland's brother, Derek, who was in a remote part of Labrador last week and difficult to reach, says his family is saddened by the sudden death.
