A number of suspects have been arrested and charged in connection with a homicide late last month on Wellington Avenue, Winnipeg police say.
Officers were initially called about a suspicious death on the morning of March 28 and found the victim, 30-year-old Bronson Emery Dale Kequahtooway.
Homicide investigators took over, and with the help of the tactical support team, raided a home on Simcoe Street the next day and arrested three people.
A 20-year-old man, a 43-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman were each charged with accessory to murder after the fact.
On the afternoon of April 3, police arrested a fourth suspect, another 28-year-old woman, and charged her with the same offence, as well as three counts of failing to comply with probation.
