Man charged with second-degree murder in death of Calgary woman: RCMP

The death of a woman on the Mini Thni Stoney First Nation (formerly known as Morley) has resulted in a man being charged with second-degree murder.

RCMP say officers were called to a residence on the First Nation, about 15 minutes west of Calgary, on April 26 for reports of a family disturbance.

When they arrived, they discovered the body of a 38-year-old Calgary woman in a secondary residence on the property.

The suspect, who had fled the scene, was later discovered in a nearby wooded area, where he was arrested.

An 18-year-old man, who RCMP say is a resident of Mini Thni, has now been charged with second-degree murder.
