SASKATOON, Sask. (NEWS1130) - Police say a man they've charged with second-degree murder in the death of a Manitoba woman may be headed for BC.
Mounties have issued a Canada-wide warrant for Russell Gordon McDiarmid, 51, of Fisher Branch, Man. in connection with the death of Nancy Swenty.
RCMP say they've confirmed McDiarmid was spotted in Saskatoon at a hospital late Thursday night.
Police say McDiarmid is possibly armed and may be travelling in a stolen 2006 grey Ford Ranger pickup truck.
The body of Swenty, 33, was found near Poplarfield, Man. last week, a month after she was reported missing.
RCMP Sgt. Line Karpish says police aren't releasing information about what McDiarmid was doing at the hospital in Saskatoon in order to protect the integrity of their investigation. |
