WINNIPEG — A Winnipeg man has turned himself in on second-degree murder charges.
Jenilee Rose Ballantyne, 22, was found dead in an abandoned parked car on Thursday.
A few hours earlier, at 4:25 a.m., police had been called to a stabbing or assault in a home.
Ballantyne had been in the company of a man in the early morning hours of Friday. They got involved in a dispute, during which Ballantyne sustained serious injuries.
Police said the man then placed Ballantyne in a vehicle, drove her to a different area and abandoned her there.
Early Friday, Michael Daniel Bourget, 28, turned himself in to police. He was charged with second-degree murder.
An autopsy will be completed before police release details of the injuries that killed Ballantyne.
It's not clear what their relationship was.
Both the house and the vehicle, a grey Honda Civic, are connected to Bourget.
