A 20 year old man from Mistawasis First Nation has been charged with one count of second degree murder in connection to a homicide dating back to 2020.

Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crime Unit, working with Yorkton General Investigation Services, Meadow Lake, Shellbrook and Prince Albert Detachments, and in consultation with Crown Prosecution, made two arrests in connection to the homicide of Troy Watson.

Roy Lasas  and a man who can’t be named because he was a youth at the time of the offence, are in Prince Albert court today, facing one count each of Second Degree Murder.

When RCMP were called to the First Nation around 9 p.m. on November 17, 2020, an unconscious man had been located outside a home on the Mistawasis First Nation and was declared deceased at the scene.
