  • Homicide in Agassiz

Police in Agassiz say a man has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of a woman in a case of possible intimate partner violence.

Mounties say police were called to a home at the Seabird Island Band in April and found a 33-year-old woman dead at the scene.

Homicide investigators took over the investigation after coroners found evidence relating to the case.

Police say a 36-year-old man has been charged and will remain in custody until he appears in court.
