Police in Prince George say a 17-year-old boy has been killed after an alleged homicide early Thursday morning.

The Prince George RCMP says its officers responded to reports of a stabbing on Pine Street near 16 Avenue.

“The 17-year-old male victim was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, but did not survive,” Corp. Sonja Bloom said in a statement Friday.
