Police are hoping to speak with three men who may have information into the 2012 death of a Medicine Hat senior who was beaten to death before her body was discovered in her burning home.

The body of 94-year-old Hazel Lloyd was discovered inside a Medicine Hat suite after fire crews and police officers were called to the seniors Riverside apartment Aug. 29, 2012, to respond to a blaze.

An autopsy later revealed Lloyd had died of multiple blunt-force injuries.

At the time, police said items inside the apartment were deliberately set on fire after the senior died. It also didnt look like a break-and-enter as it appears nothing was taken from her residence.

Lloyd lived alone. According to an obituary published in September 2012, Lloyd was born in Whitewood, Sask., but was raised in the Battleford district. She moved to Medicine Hat after retiring in 1983.

On Sunday, Medicine Hat Police released composite sketches of three men who may have information about Lloyds homicide.

Weve now obtained enough information that we felt comfortable in putting out these composites, said Staff Sgt. Brian Christmann with the Medicine Hat Police Services major crimes section.

Christmann said the men are not considered suspects, rather they are people who may have information.

Anyone who can help identify the men is being asked to contact the Major Crimes Section at 403-529-8420.
