LANGLEY, B.C. – A man has been found dead inside a marijuana grow-op in Metro Vancouver.

Members of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team confirm they were called to a home late Tuesday night in a rural section of Langley, about 50 kilometres southeast of Vancouver.

The first officers on the scene determined the death was the result of foul play.

Police haven’t confirmed the victim’s identity and aren’t saying how he died.

Corp. Adam MacIntosh says investigators will likely remain at the house for several days as they check it for clues and try to determine a motive.

He urges anyone with information about the slaying to speak to police.
