A suspect in a November 2023 Winnipeg murder has been arrested after he fled to northern Manitoba.
Bryce William Walker, 21, was arrested by RCMP at a home in Thompson on Tuesday, and turned over to Winnipeg homicide investigators.
Walker, who has been charged with second-degree murder and attempted murder, was the subject of a Canada-wide warrant in connection with the Nov. 5 shooting that led to the death of Lawrence Evan Pruden and injuries to another victim.
