RCMP have arrested a wanted man in connection to the February homicide of a 33-year-old man from the Opaskwayak Cree Nation.
Officers arrested Draven Mercredi Thursday without incident.
He was one of three people wanted by RCMP in connection to the death, which happened on Feb. 27, said an RCMP release.
At roughly 2 a.m., officers from The Pas detachment responded to a reported fight at a home in the community. When they arrived, they found a man suffering serious injuries. He would later die.
Two men were charged with second degree murder shortly after the assault and a warrant was issued for Mercredi’s arrest.
RCMP thanked the public for their assistance in finding the wanted man.
