Prince George RCMP is advising the public that the home invasion investigation begun on June 19, 2023, has now become a homicide investigation. This marks the sixth murder in Prince George in 2023.

Regrettably, the male victim did not survive his injuries. We are once again appealing to the public to come forward with any information about the identities of the persons who entered the residence where the victim was located in the time before the home invasion occurred. If anyone has any surveillance or dash cam footage from the 300-block of Nicholson Street South between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., which shows persons or vehicles coming and going from the area, we encourage you to speak with an investigator by calling 250-561-3300, states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer for the Prince George RCMP.

The investigation remains ongoing.

Background:
