Police say they will need to consult with Crown prosecutors before deciding if they will charged anyone in the stabbing death of a man in Didsbury on the weekend.
The 37-year-old was found dead Sunday night, at which point a 69-year-old woman was taken in to custody.
Sergeant Patrick Webb tells 660News that woman is no longer in custody.
“Been released with out any legal process,” said Webb. “That simply means that at the time in the first 24-hours we do not have the evidence to lay any particular charge so the examination will be continuing, the investigation will continue and once we have all the evidence we will be working with the Provincial Crown.”
Webb says self defence is one part of that investigation.
The woman and victim are related but police won’t say how.
