      Natural Death - Cambridge

      Police, firefighters and an ambulance were sent to Lang's Drive early today, after a resident spotted the body of a man along the road at 7: 15 a.m. But there's nothing suspicious about the death. "An 81-year-old man goes for a walk there every morning and I guess his time came," said Waterloo Regional Police Sgt. Frank Monteiro. "They found him face down in the snow." Rescuers tried to revive the man at the scene and at Cambridge Memorial Hospital, buut were unsuccessful.
