A 17-year-old Manitoba resident is facing murder, sexual assault and robbery charges relating to a death in the Esterhazy, Sask., area back in February.
Esterhazy and Broadview RCMP said they got a call about a break and enter and a suspicious death on Feb. 10 at a home south of Stockholm and Esterhazy.
Police determined that three men broke into the home and a gun was fired.
One of the residents, a man, was found dead by police, and the other, a woman, was taken to the hospital with injuries.
Police say the attackers stole guns, electronics, jewelry, ammunition and the homeowner’s vehicle, which was found burnt a short distance away.
The 17-year-old was arrested in Winnipeg on Saturday and will appear in Yorkton Provincial court Tuesday morning.
The Saskatchewan RCMP said the investigation is ongoing.
