Saint John Police have arrested another person in connection with a homicide in the north end on Oct. 20.

The man appeared in Saint John provincial court Tuesday and was charged with first-degree murder. He’ll be back in court on Nov. 18.

A 36-year-old man was arrested on the afternoon of Oct. 20 and is facing charges of first-degree murder, possession of a firearm while prohibited and breach of probation.

The investigation is ongoing.
