Man charged in death, assaults in Saskatchewan last week

A 56-year-old from Lloydminster is charged with second-degree murder of Sharon Littlewolfe, plus attempted murder and two counts of aggravated assault.

A man in Saskatchewan is accused of murdering a woman he was in a relationship with, injuring another woman and baby next door and then assaulting a man in another town more than 100 kilometres away while seeking help for a stuck vehicle.

RCMP said they responded to a report of an assault in Margo in eastern Saskatchewan late Saturday night and found a seriously injured woman and an infant with injuries they described as non-life-threatening.

In a home next door, they found the body of 51-year-old Sharon Littlewolfe of Margo. A vehicle was missing from a nearby home.

Police said the suspect was known to all of the victims and an investigation determined he was in a relationship with Littlewolfe.

Less than two hours later, they were called to a home in Tisdale, where a homeowner had restrained a man who allegedly showed up looking for help with a stuck vehicle, but then assaulted him.

Mounties said the victim was able to hold the man until officers arrived and arrested him.

A 56-year-old from Lloydminster faces charges that include one count of second-degree murder, one count of attempted murder, and two counts of aggravated assault.

He was scheduled to appear Tuesday in Melfort provincial court.
