OXFORD, N.S. — The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in Nova Scotia are conducting an investigation into the death of a 51-year-old man, who succumbed to injuries resulting from a suspicious electrocution incident that occurred in the northern region of the province.

The incident took place on July 29, when the man sustained serious injuries from an electrocution while at a commercial property located on the 3,000-block of Highway 321 in Oxford, Nova Scotia. Emergency responders arrived after receiving a report about an injured individual in the area.

According to police statements, it has been determined that the electrocution was not related to any workplace incident, leading investigators to believe that there may be criminal elements involved. This has prompted the authorities to widen their investigation as they seek to uncover the circumstances surrounding the man's injuries.

RCMP investigators have indicated that there were other individuals present at the scene during the time of the electrocution. They are particularly interested in speaking with these witnesses to gather more information that could assist in piecing together the events that transpired. The police are urging anyone who was in the vicinity at the time to reach out and share their insights.

Furthermore, the RCMP have also made a public appeal for any dashcam or surveillance footage that may have been recorded in the area between July 29 and August 3. This potential evidence could provide crucial leads that aid in the ongoing investigation into the electrocution incident.

The 51-year-old man was hospitalized following the electrocution, but unfortunately, he passed away on October 5 due to complications from his injuries. His death has further intensified the focus of the RCMP's investigation, as they aim to uncover the facts of the case and determine if criminal activity was involved in this tragic incident.

As of now, the RCMP have not provided immediate responses to inquiries regarding specific details of the case or the status of the investigation. Further updates may be released as new insights come to light.
