Police in Prince George are investigating a weekend homicide.

When officers arrived, they found a man suffering from apparent gunshot wounds.

RCMP provided medical attention to the man until paramedics arrived to transport the victim to hospital, however, he later succumbed to his injuries.

Investigators from the Integrated Forensic Identification Section, Police Dog Services, and Serious Crime Unit also assisted in the investigation.
