Toronto police are investigating after “possible human remains” were located in Scarborough late Sunday afternoon.

The discovery was made at the back of an industrial plaza at 2010 Ellesmere Rd., just west of Markham Road.

Toronto police say they were called to that area just before 6 p.m. for a “suspicious incident.”

“This investigation is ongoing, and there is no further information available at this time,” a media officer told CP24.

“If this is determined to be criminal in nature, or this is deemed to be a homicide, more information will be provided.”

Toronto Paramedic Services have confirmed that they attended the scene but would only say that they didn’t transport anyone to the hospital.

The entire plaza is taped off as police investigate.

Toronto police are investigating two separate stabbings that occurred on Friday evening.

Authorities were first called to the Keelesdale-Eglinton West neighbourhood, near Rogers Road and Keele Street, at 11:21 p.m. for reports of a stabbing in the area.

When officers arrived at the scene, they located a male victim in his 30s who had been stabbed. He was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say no suspect description is available, but an investigation is ongoing.

About 20 minutes later, authorities were called to the downtown area of Wellesley Street East and Jarvis Street for reports of a second, unrelated stabbing.

In that incident, a man in his 30s was found with stab wounds and transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say the suspect(s) fled the area before officers arrived.

No other details were immediately available.
