“File Hills First Nations Police Service officers located a deceased adult male at a residence,” the RCMP said in a statement.
“They arrested a male teen at the scene. As File Hills First Nations Police Service does not have a Major Crimes branch, they engaged Saskatchewan RCMP to take full carriage of the investigation.”
The Mounties said the teen is now facing a charge of second-degree murder.
“We will not identify the teen as per the Youth Criminal Justice Act,” the RCMP noted.
“The victim and the accused are known to each other. We are not providing additional details about the relationship or the victim’s identity.”
The teen is expected to appear in court in Fort Qu’Appelle on Thursday, the RCMP added.
