“The victim had injuries resembling those from a stab wound,” provincial Const. Steven Duguay said in an email.
“As this remains under investigation I can’t comment on a weapon at this time.”
Cody Froese, of Essex, was arrested at the residence and has since been charged with second-degree murder.
Police say Froese and the victim were “known to each other” but would not provide any other information about the relationship between the two. Police also said that they will not be naming the victim.
