EDMONTON - Four men have been arrested in three different murder cases in Alberta and Saskatchewan, including one in which a head was found in an Edmonton alley.
The body of Robert John Roth was found decapitated 100 kilometres away near the Alberta town of Ranfurly in October.
Police say Randy James Wayne O'Hagan and Nikolas Jon Nowytzkyj have been charged with first-degree murder and offering an indignity to a human body.
O'Hagan, along with Kyle Darren Halbauer, is facing charges in the death of another man whose body was found on a rural road near Kitscoty, Alta., in September.
Those two, along with Joshua Petrin, also face charges in the death of Lorry Santos in Saskatoon in September.
Police said she was shot and killed when she answered the door of her home to strangers.
