REGINA – A man accused in the shooting death of a woman on a rural Saskatchewan highway is having his charge upgraded to second-degree murder.
Chris Fahlman, 42, was previously charged with manslaughter in the death of 44-year-old Tanya Myers.
Myers was killed by gunshot in September while sitting in the passenger seat of an SUV driving on Highway 39 near Weyburn.
Fahlman’s previous charges have been stayed.
In his new charges, he’s also been accused of intentionally shooting a firearm while being reckless as to the life or safety of another person.
He is scheduled to make a court appearance Friday for a bail hearing.
