A 22-year-old Stettler man faces two serious charges after Mounties say a man was found dead inside a home.

On Thursday, RCMP received a tip that said someone was dead inside a home on 50A Avenue. Police later found a 33-year-old man dead inside.

Alberta RCMP Major Crimes Unit took over the investigation at that point.

RCMP later arrested and charged Byron Ervin Dinsmore, 22, of Stettler with manslaughter with a firearm and indignity to a body.

Dinsmore remains in police custody until his next court appearance on April 21, 2022.

Police said they are not looking for any additional suspects.
