Fort Saskatchewan RCMP has released the cause of this morning's heavy police presence in Sturgeon County. 

On Monday (June 26) night, police say they were called to assist the local fire department with a vehicle fire on Range Road 230 and Township Road 554. 

When police arrived, the vehicle was engulfed in flames. Once extinguished, officers reported finding what they believed to be human remains. 

Mounties were on the scene for some time but have since cleared the area. 

The remains will be sent for an autopsy by the Chief Medical Examiner in Edmonton on Wednesday morning. 

The investigation is ongoing, and another update is anticipated.
