A man is dead, and two others have been arrested.

RCMP were called to Lorne Street in Sackville on Saturday night after reports of a stabbing.

Forty-four-year-old Shawn Mitton was found lying on the side of the road suffering from stab wounds.

He was taken to hospital where he died.

Two men, a 20- and 22-year-old, were arrested at a Sackville home and are now charged with second degree murder.

They remain in custody, and are scheduled to return to court on March 19.
