PORT HARDY — A Prince Rupert, B.C., man has been arrested and charged with murder in the killing of an 84-year-old man who was found gravely injured on Vancouver Island almost two years ago.
Port Hardy RCMP say the 54-year-old suspect was arrested in Prince Rupert last Friday without incident.
Police in the Port Hardy in the far north of Vancouver Island had received a report of an injured man on a path on Oct. 6, 2024, and the victim was taken to hospital where he died.
The victim was identified as a man who had been living in Port Hardy.
