Two men have been charged with second-degree murder in what RCMP say were unrelated homicides hours apart in the same northern Manitoba First Nation community. Mounties responded around 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday to reports of a stabbing outside a home on Portage Road in Mosakahiken Cree Nation, located near Moose Lake, approximately 480 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg. They took an injured 40-year-old man to the local nursing station, where he was pronounced dead, according to a news release from RCMP on Thursday. Bruce Walker-Ballantyne, 21, of Mosakahiken, was arrested at the scene. He has been charged with second-degree murder and remains in custody. A few hours later, just after midnight on Wednesday, RCMP responded to an assault with a weapon at a home on Traders Road in the community. A 19-year-old man was taken to the nursing station and died. Ahab McNabb, 26, also from the Cree nation, was arrested, detained and charged with second-degree murder on Thursday.
