Then there's this:

The victim's name, age and cause of death have not been released.

I'm not a doctor, but I think I could make a good guess.

Shot?  Stabbed?  Sworded?  Arrowed?  Toothed by a vicious rabbit?  Tangled in fishing line and crushed by the fall?  Victim of a freak accident involving wet lumberjack overalls and flannel?

Probably that.  It is the #3 cause of death in Canada, right behind #1: Freezing to Death and #2: Polar Bear Mauling.
