North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP are looking for information from the public after officers were called to a Duncan home in the middle of the night, where they found signs of a disturbance. The investigation centres on a property on Marchmont Road, where police arrived at approximately 2:30 a.m. on Nov. 10. Investigators have released few details about what prompted the call or what officers found when they arrived. The RCMP Forensic Identification Section was also brought in to examine the scene. Police say their assessment of the situation is continuing, but they have not identified any information suggesting an immediate or ongoing threat to the public. “This is a sensitive investigation and further information shared at this time could compromise its integrity. However, I can tell you that public safety is paramount and should there be an increased concern, we would advise accordingly,” Cpl. Alex Bérubé said in a statement to CTV News. Residents who may have been travelling through the area that morning could have information that helps investigators piece together what happened. RCMP are particularly interested in hearing from anyone who was in the Marchmont Road area between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. on Tuesday, including people who may have captured something on dashcam or home surveillance cameras. Anyone with information is asked to contact the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP at 250-748-5522 and reference file number 2026-18913.
