RCMP investigators have determined that a man whose body was found in a car in Nova Scotia last year was a homicide victim. The body was discovered in circumstances that prompted a suspicious-death investigation. Working with the Nova Scotia Medical Examiner Service, police identified the man as Emerson Elliot Dixon of Whitney Pier. The announcement classifies Dixon's death as homicide rather than leaving the cause undetermined. Investigators did not release details about the circumstances of his death or the findings at the scene. The announcement gives the victim's name and place of residence but no information about suspects or charges.
