A 19-year-old woman is dead and a 20-year-old man is in custody after a homicide in a small Manitoba town, 90 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg, on Tuesday morning.

RCMP were called out to Highway 502 in Lac du Bonnet, between Highway 11 and Highway 313, around 6:30 a.m.

A spokesperson for STARS Air Ambulance said their crew was called to the area around 7:06 a.m. and planned to connect with local emergency crews, but were told to stand down because they were "not medically required."

The investigation is ongoing.
