An inmate at Bowden Institution died while in custody on Thursday.

Correctional Service Canada said in a statement that Jacques Larente had been serving an indeterminate sentence for armed robbery, robbery, aggravated assault, forcible confinement, hostage taking and sexual assault with a weapon since June 12, 1981.

Larente’s next of kin have been notified of his death.

As in all cases involving the death of an inmate, CSC policy requires that the coroner be notified.
