Saskatchewan RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance in locating a 58-year-old Prince Albert man who has been charged with second-degree murder following the death of a Rose Valley resident on November 5th.
Steven Kishayinew is wanted in connection with the death of 66-year-old Willard Buckle, who was found deceased inside a residence on Railway Avenue North in Rose Valley.
At approximately 11:00 a.m. on November 5th, Rose Valley RCMP received a report of an injured individual at the residence. Officers responded and located Buckle, who was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The Saskatchewan RCMP Homicide Investigation Unit, working alongside the Saskatchewan Coroners Service, launched an investigation into the death, which was initially considered suspicious.
As a result of the investigation, Kishayinew has been charged with one count of second-degree murder. A warrant has been issued for his arrest, and police are seeking information regarding his whereabouts.
Kishayinew is described as approximately five feet ten inches tall, weighing 220 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He has tattoos on his left forearm and a bear paw tattoo on his left hand.
Police believe he may be driving a maroon 2008 GMC Sierra truck with Saskatchewan licence plate 389 MQY.
Kishayinew is known to travel to or spend time in several Saskatchewan communities, including Fishing Lake First Nation, Rose Valley, Regina and Prince Albert.
RCMP warn that Kishayinew may be armed and is considered dangerous. Members of the public are advised not to approach him if spotted.
As part of the investigation, police have also asked Rose Valley residents to review any home security or doorbell camera footage recorded between November 1st and November 5th for suspicious activity.
Anyone with information regarding Kishayinew’s whereabouts, or who may have captured suspicious activity on security footage, is asked to contact their local police or Saskatchewan RCMP at 310-RCMP.
