A 14-year-old and a 17-year-old have both been charged with second-degree murder in the death of a man last week in Wabaseemoong.

Provincial police on Wednesday announced the charges against the two teens, who also face counts of break and enter to commit an indictable offence, and robbery.

On Oct. 27, emergency services responded to a call reporting an individual with life threatening injuries. The individual was taken to hospital by paramedics, where they were pronounced dead.

Police had previously said they were investigating the case as a suspicious death.

The victim has been identified as 42-year-old Raymond Land of Wabaseemoong. A post-mortem examination took place in Toronto on Monday.

Both accused remain in custody and were scheduled to appear in a Kenora courtroom on Wednesday.
