RCMP Saskatchewan Major Crimes Historical Case Unit North has made an arrest and laid charges connected with the death of Katelyn Marie Noble.
Katelyn was 15 years old at the time she was last seen in the Radisson area on Aug. 27, 2007. Arrested on Tuesday was Eduard Viktorovit Baranec, 41, at a federal prison in British Columbia where he is currently serving on another matter.
Baranec is charged with first-degree murder as well as indignity to a human body. His first court appearance was Wednesday by video at Saskatoon Provincial Court.
Police described the 11-year-long investigation as extensive and complex, and that it spanned the country from Ontario to British Columbia. They add that investigators hope these developments begin to provide Katelyn’s family with some measure of comfort.
