Homicide investigators combing Halifax north end

Halifax Regional Police are busy in the city's north end this afternoon in relation to the ongoing murder investigation in the death of Ryan Matthew White, the CBC has learned.

Police found White on the pavement outside a building in the Mulgrave Park public housing complex two years ago. He was suffering from a chest wound.

Today, police are combing the area between Union Street and Devonshire Avenue, just below Fort Needham Park.

Homicide investigators, the identification unit, as well as the canine unit and other officers are on scene.

They're using metal detectors in a heavily wooded area where there are walking trails.

Const. Brian Palmeter told CBC News, police are searching for evidence.

"We received information recently with respect to the ongoing investigation, that has led investigators back to search this area," he said, "Obviously I can't get into what we're looking for but we believe there's evidence here that will help us in the investigation."

Palmeter said the area was searched by investigators at the time of the murder, but police believe this new search may reveal evidence that will allow them to lay charges.

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said. The victim's identity had not been determined as of late Wednesday afternoon. The body was turned over to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office.

Manslaughter charges possible in boy's death

Published: Thursday, August 23, 2012, 5:55 p.m. MONROE -- Detectives believe a 7-year-old Monroe boy's parents should face second-degree manslaughter charges in connection with his January overdose death. Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
