Stabbing victim dies

A 20-year-old Norway House man is dead after a stabbing early Saturday morning at the northern Manitoba community.

RCMP say the man was found by officers in a home in the Rossville area of Norway House about 5 a.m., suffering from what appeared to be stab wounds.

Emergency crews took the man to Norway House Hospital but he died of his injuries later that day, RCMP said.

An autopsy was scheduled for yesterday morning in Winnipeg but RCMP did not release any further information about the homicide.

Norway House RCMP, the RCMP serious crime unit out of Winnipeg and the Thompson major crime and identification units continue an investigation. The man's name was not released last night.
