A new court date has been set for a Birch River man, arrested in connection with a death in that community.

Last October, Swan River RCMP were called to a house fire in Birch River.

Once it was extinguished, the body of a 68-year-old man was found inside.

21-year-old Lincoln Chartrand-Flett is charged with Second Degree Murder, and he was remanded in custody to October 31st in Dauphin.
