NORTH BAY — The North Bay Police say there is no foul play involved in connection with the discovery of a body near the Caldwell Ellam Community Centre near ET Carmichael in North Bay. 

Police are calling it, "a sudden death."

They say the body of a male believed to be in his early 40s, was found by passersby on a trail near a playground Friday night. The individuals then called 911 and police responded. 

"We can confirm the deceased individual was found on a pathway and no foul play is suspected," said Special Constable John Schultz, Community Safety Coordinator with the North Bay Police Service. 

Schultz says the Coroners Office is now in charge of the investigation. 

Police have not determined how long the deceased individual was there before he was discovered.
