Arrest In North End Murder

It didn't take long for an arrest to be made in the stabbing death of a 29 year old man in the north end early this morning.

Police say a 17 year old youth went to the RCMP in Hampton early this morning almost a couple of hours after the murder took place.

Police were called to Barker Street shortly after 12:40 this morning after receiving a 9-1-1 call. Police tell CHSJ News the victim was stabbed on the street itself and people who live in close by say they heard what appeared as an altercation beforehand.

Even though someone is in custody, Police are asking anyone who might know something about the circumstances to contact them at either 648-3333 or 648-3211 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-tips.
