A 26-year-old man has been charged with first-degree murder in connection to a deadly shooting in Fort McMurray earlier this year.
On February 7, Wood Buffalo RCMP were called to the 600 block of Signal Road, where they found 24-year-old Junior Ashu of Edmonton with a gunshot wound.
He was rushed to hospital but later died from his injuries.
After months of investigation, the Alberta RCMP Major Crimes Unit identified a suspect.
On May 15th, St. Albert RCMP arrested 26 year old Andrew Barnett, also from Edmonton.
Barnett is now facing a charge of first-degree murder.
He remains in custody and is set to appear in Fort McMurray Provincial Court on May 28.
