A teen boy is facing charges of failing to remain at the scene of an accident that resulted in the death of a 58-year-old man in La Loche on October 31.

Officers from the La Loche RCMP detachment were called to Washington Avenue by EMS on the day in question.

A pedestrian had been struck by a vehicle, and the driver had not remained at the scene.

The victim was taken to hospital but later passed away from his injuries.

The teen cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act and will make his first appearance in La Loche Provincial Court on December 29.
