RCMP in Slave Lake are investigating a murder.

Mounties say they were called out to a report of a possible stabbing in the southwest part of the community just after 3 p.m. on Sunday.

Police say they found a 22-year-old man with what they call multiple injuries and subsequently found another person, a 28-year-old man with injuries during patrols. Both were taken to hospital.

All this was followed by a search during which a third man was found deceased.

No other details have been released and the Alberta Major Crimes Unit has taken over the investigation.

Anyone with information about this crime or those responsible is asked to contact the Slave Lake RCMP at 780-849-3045 or their local police.

Anyone who wants to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), online at www.P3Tips.com or by using the “P3 Tips” app available through the Apple App or Google Play Store.
