Saskatoon police looking for vehicle in connection with May stabbing death of 43-year-old man
Police previously said officers were called around 11 p.m. on May 18 with a report of a person with a stab wound near Avenue B South and Spadina Crescent. They found an injured 43-year-old man who was rushed to hospital but died from his injuries shortly after.
On Tuesday, police said investigators with the major crimes section say a white Lincoln MKZ, with the model year between 2013 and 2020, was seen in the area at the time of the incident and believe the person or people in that vehicle may have information relevant to the case.
Police have released both a surveillance image and a stock photo of the vehicle model, and are asking anyone with information to contact Saskatoon police at 306-975-8300 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
The 43-year-old's death was the fourth homicide of 2025 in Saskatoon, and was one of two during the May long weekend.

New drug called "flysky" is spreading throughout the Pittsburgh area, authorities say
A new drug called "flysky" has been spreading throughout the Pittsburgh region, and officials are warning that it can be deadly. In Fayette County over the last few days, there have been at least two overdose deaths from the drug. The drug, as it is sometimes labeled on bags sold on the street, is heroin laced with medetomidine, a tranquilizer used in veterinary medicine. Fayette County District Attorney Michael Aubele says that users need to be aware that this drug can be lethal. "My understanding is that medetomidine is a drug that is not affected by Narcan. So if you overdose on medetomidine, Narcan is not going to save you," Aubele said. Aubele says that anyone who may have a bag of flysky can turn it into authorities at several places in the county, including local police stations and the Crime Stoppers office, with no questions asked. He also says that not only are local and state police working to get these drugs off the streets, but that his office will prosecute those who are responsible for delivering these drugs into their community. "We want people to be safe. We want everybody to be alive and to be healthy. You just don't know what you are getting anymore on the street," Aubele added. Not only is this drug popping up in Fayette County and the Pittsburgh area, but it is also being seen in places like Philadelphia and Chicago. For more information on this substance, click here.

Former West Des Moines teacher charged with sexual assault, kidnapping of 13-year-old
A former West Des Moines Community School District teacher has been arrested and charged for allegedly kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 13-year-old in his home. Danny Allen Hoyt, 57, of Indianola, is facing several sex abuse charges after police say he picked up the teenager from Knoxville on July 19 and allegedly made the victim wear a blindfold when they entered the Indianola area and drove to his home in rural Warren County, court documents said. Hoyt allegedly sexually assaulted and restrained the victim to a bed inside his house, court documents said. Hoyt also allegedly forced the the teenager to drink a THC-infused beverage. Hoyt then placed a blindfold on the 13-year-old and dropped them back off in Knoxville, according to a criminal complaint. Authorities found a large quantity of THC products in Hoyt's residence, which included THC vapes, gummies and beverages during a search warrant, according to court documents. Officials from West Des Moines schools told the Register they are aware of Hoyt's charges and said he had been on administrative leave since April 1. Hoyt did not teach students for the remainder of the school year and retired at the end of the spring semester. 'While we cannot comment on the details of an ongoing legal matter or personnel issues, we understand the seriousness of the situation and will fully cooperate with law enforcement as needed,' officials said in a statement. Hoyt is currently being held in the Warren County Jail and has a preliminary hearing scheduled for Aug. 4. José Mendiola is a breaking news reporter for the Register.
