Police discovered the body earlier this month, following a report of human remains buried outside of a home on the 1300 block of Retallack Street, the release said.

An autopsy revealed the man had been buried at that spot for at least five years.

The autopsy also showed his jaw had been broken at some point in his life, an injury that required surgical attention according to the RPS.

The coroner believes the man was around five feet nine inches tall and between the ages of 30 and 40 when he died.
