A man found dead inside an Edmonton apartment has been identified by police as 70-year-old Robert Anderson.

The 70-year-old man was found in a north-end apartment last Tuesday. The death has been deemed a homicide.

Edmonton police began their investigation after the body was found in an apartment in the area of 128 Ave. and 65 St.

Police continue their investigation.
