VANCOUVER – Police say a man has been charged with second-degree murder after a woman was found dead in a home on the edge of the University of British Columbia campus last week.
A statement from Cpl. Esther Tupper of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says police believe the killing may be a case of intimate partner violence.
University RCMP officers responded to a 911 call reporting a woman in medical distress at the home shortly before midnight on March 13.
A statement from police at the time says the officers arrived and found a woman dead, while two people, a man and a woman, were arrested at the scene.
The latest police statement says the BC Prosecution Service has now approved a charge of second-degree murder against 35-year-old Yang “Christopher” Liang.
Police are asking anyone with information to contact them.
