The Brantford Police Service is looking for a man wanted for second-degree murder.

Officers were called to a disturbance at a Charlotte Street home on Thursday around 4:15 p.m. When police arrived, they found a male victim with stab wounds. He died from his injuries a short time later.

Investigators have determined the people involved in the disturbance knew each other and this is not believed to be a random incident.

Police found a weapon and a male is in custody for accessory after the fact and assault with a weapon.

Brantford Police are still looking for 27-year-old Bradley George Saunders. He is wanted for second-degree murder.

He is described as a 6’2” Indigenous man weighing approximately 155 lbs. He has long dark hair.

“Saunders should be considered armed and dangerous at this point and if any members of the public were to interact or see this individual in public, please do not approach the individual. Contact Brantford Police or 911 immediately,” Brantford Police Service Const. Dakota Brush told CTV News Kitchener on Friday.

“There is a level of fear that comes with these sort of investigations and these incidents that happen in the City of Brantford. Please understand that the Brantford Police Service are doing everything they possibly can to locate the involved parties and deal with it accordingly,” Brush added.
