Two teens have been charged with second-degree murder after a 16-year-old boy was found dead in a parking lot near the Winnipeg airport on Thursday morning. 

Just after 8 a.m. on Thursday, officers responded to a well-being call in a parking lot on Wellington Avenue, between Century and Berry Streets, Winnipeg police said in a Saturday news release. 

When they arrived, police found a 16-year-old boy dead with significant injuries. 

Police identified the boy as Bruno Delmar Young, a member of Bloodvein River First Nation who was living in the city. 

Homicide investigators later arrested two teenagers — a 17-year-old boy and a 17-year-old girl — on King Edward Street.

They have both been charged with second-degree murder and were detained in custody, police said.
