Regina police have charged a 37-year-old man with first-degree murder following the discovery of a body in the aftermath of a house fire last week.
Firefighters found the body of a man after putting out a Dec. 16 fire at a home on the 1400 block of Cameron Street on Dec. 16, police previously said.
After investigating, police and the province's coroner deemed the death to be a homicide.
Regina police identified the victim as Morgan Blind, 24, in a news release Friday.
They also said Percy Pascal, 37, has been charged with first-degree murder, possession of a firearm and failing to comply.
He made his first court appearance Thursday.
