CALGARY, CANADA — Canadian police are investigating a case of the body of a man was found inside a wall in a public restroom at a mall in Calgary, Canada on Monday.

According to local media Calgary Sun, a maintenance worker was called in the morning to fix a toilet on the fourth floor at the Core shopping centre in downtown Calgary.

When the maintenance worker removed a wall panel in order to repair the toilet that would not flush, he found something unusual — the body of an adult male.

After sealing the scene and wheeling the body away, the forensics team performed an autopsy on Tuesday.

Police have not yet determined if the death is suspicious, but they said it's possible if the person was crawling through a vent or duct, fell from above and got stuck in the wall.

Police said they could not yet comment on how long the body had been behind the toilet wall as they are waiting for the results of the autopsy.
