A homicide in Kelly Lake on Friday has led to a second-degree murder charge against an Alberta man.

Dawson Creek RCMP were called to a home in Kelly Lake, which is located about 20 kilometres west of Goodfare and about 85 kilometres west of Grande Prairie, on August 16 just after 7:30 p.m. pacific time on a report of an assault.

A 54-year-old man was found fatally wounded upon police arriving to the scene. The 24-year-old suspect was arrested at the scene without incident.

Morgen Lambert-Bouma is now facing a second-degree murder charge as a result. He was to appear in Dawson Creek Provincial Court yesterday.

RCMP say that both men were known to each other prior to this incident.
