Saskatchewan RCMP have made an arrest in the death of a 19-year-old at a high school party in Regina Beach, Sask. in 2006.
Misha Pavelick was fatally stabbed during a graduation party near Last Mountain Lake over the May long weekend, roughly 50 kilometres northwest of Regina.
Two others were seriously injured in the incident.
During a news conference Tuesday afternoon, RCMP announced the arrest of 34-year-old man in Regina on Saturday.
The man, who can not be named because he was a youth at the time of Pavelick's death, is charged with second-degree murder.
He is expected to make his second court appearance in provincial youth court in Regina on July 17.
Pavelick's homicide has remained under investigation for the past 17 years, with the RCMP taking the unusual step of creating a podcast in 2021 in the hopes of generating new leads.
