REGINA — Mounties say they are investigating allegations someone died in 1974 at a northern Saskatchewan home where children who went to residential school lived.
RCMP say they received a complaint in October that a person had died at the Timber Bay Children’s Home near Lac La Ronge, about 340 kilometres north of Saskatoon.
The home was not considered a residential school, but it housed Indigenous children who attended the schools.
RCMP say they obtained a recorded statement in July and the historical case unit is investigating.
