Mounties in Duncan say a man is now facing a charge of manslaughter for the stabbing death of a 33-year-old-man earlier this year. 

They say that on July 16th, officers responded to a report of an injured man in the city's downtown and arrived to find the victim suffering from stab wounds. 

Police say he was then brought to the hospital where he died of his injuries.

They say the 53-year-old suspect was arrested by the Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit on Thursday.
