Two men have been charged with manslaughter in relation to a 2022 fatal stabbing in Williams Lake, B.C.
On May 5, 2022, 19-year-old Richard “Richie” Todd was found suffering from stab wounds on Midnight Drive, according to police. He later died from his injuries in hospital.

Police say they both remain in custody and will appear in court on Monday.
