A Winnipeg woman has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of a man from Berens River First Nation.
Justin Boulanger, 34, was found unconscious after police said he was assaulted in the 300 block of Blake Street early Sunday morning. According to police, Boulanger was living in Winnipeg at the time of the incident.
An investigation determined Boulanger was with a woman inside a suite at the apartment complex in the area, when they got into an argument. Police alleged the dispute escalated and the woman shot Boulanger with an improvised firearm.
The 34-year-old was taken to hospital in critical condition, but later died.
On Thursday, police arrested a 43-year-old woman at the apartment complex. The woman also had three additional warrants in her name when she was detained by police.
