      CHILLIWACK, B.C. — A 19-year-old man has been charged in connection with the death of a Chilliwack woman.
       
      Police were called to a home in the Fraser Valley early on Feb. 24 and found the 51-year-old woman dead.
       
      Homicide investigators took over the case and on Friday night a young man was arrested.
