A 39-year-old Kamloops man was fatally stabbed this weekend, and Mounties are investigating.
The Kamloops RCMP received a 911 call 10:34 a.m. Aug. 1 and that led them to a residence on Clarke Street in Kamloops. Upon arrival, police found a 39-year-old male who had been stabbed, with the male transported to the Royal Inland Hospital where he later died as a result of his injuries. At approximately 2 p.m. the same day, RCMP arrested a 37-year-old man in relation to this incident.
