ST. JOHN’S — The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary have charged two men with murder in St. John’s, while a third is still at large.

In a news release, the force says officers found a man dead inside a St. John’s home on Sunday.

Officials determined his death was a homicide, but they don’t know his identity.

Police say they arrested and charged a 42-year-old man and a 28-year-old man for murder.

In a separate release, the force said a 47-year-old male suspect is still at large and wanted on several charges, including murder.

The constabulary says the homicide does not appear to be random and the man at large is considered armed and dangerous.
