Yates and Ballou in Glenmore.

11:30 a.m. update: Kelowna RCMP have confirmed they are investigating  a suspicious death at a Glenmore area home.

On June 18, 2013 at 12:37 am, the Kelowna RCMP were called to a house on the 300 block of Yates Road to assist paramedics. When police arrived, they found a 27-year-old Kelowna woman deceased inside the home. Her death has been deemed suspicious and the Kelowna RCMP Serious Crime Unit is investigating.

Cst. Kris Clark would not comment on witness reports that children were living at the home.

10:40 a.m. update: RCMP have not confirmed or denied the police incident on Yates and Ballou is a homicide investigation. The escalation of the investigation and the resources being used deem it to be a serious crime.

Witnesses tell Castanet a mother with two children live upstairs and a man was apparently living downstairs. 

We expect an RCMP press release in the next few hours.

Police have Yates and Ballou blocked off in Glenmore. The police tape is around a pink house on the corner.

At least three police cars are now on the scene along with two dog teams, which appear to be sweeping the area.

Neighbours say they heard sirens around 1 a.m.

More details to follow.
