RCMP are investigating after a body was found on the TransCanada Highway just inside the Saskatchewan border with Alberta on Saturday.

The male was found around 7:30 that morning and while the investigation continues, officials think he was hit by a passing vehicle.

Officers are now trying to identify the man who appears to be in his 60's, Caucasian, about 5-foot-7, 140 pounds with grey hair, a large moustache and beard. Police are also looking for anyone who may have spotted what happened.
