DEAD MAN’S FAMILY LOCATED

Police have finally tracked down a dead man’s next of kin.

Toronto Police said on Sunday that they located the relatives of Sylbert Blackwood, 60, who also went by the name Anthony Black, after he was found dead on Sept. 13 at a residence in the Driftwood Ave.-Grandravine Dr. area.

The update came after police requested the public’s help late last month after they had trouble locating the family of Blackwood, who emigrated to Canada from Jamaica in the late 1980s.
