The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary have charged two men with murder — and are looking for another man — in connection to a dead man found by police over the weekend in a St. John’s home.
In a statement on Tuesday, the police said they have a warrant for the arrest of 47-year-old Douglas Yetman on eleven charges, including murder as well as multiple firearm and weapons offenses.
While the police say the murder does not appear to be random, they believe Yetman is armed and dangerous, and is advising the public not to approach him.
