A 17 year old boy has been charged in connection with last night's fatal stabbing at the Tsawwassen First Nation reserve.

Constable Ciaran Feenan says the boy faces charges of second-degree murder and attempted murder after a 16 year old girl died of stab wounds.

As for the 15 year old girl also stabbed?

"I know that the last that I was updated, she was still in critical condition but expected to survive."

Feenan says all three involved have addresses on the reserve, and knew each other.
