Man, 25, charged in Regina’s second murder of 2017

A 25-year-old man is facing a murder charge in Regina’s second murder case of 2017.

Christopher Sean Pascal, of Regina, has been charged with second-degree murder in relation to the death of 46-year-old Rodney James Nippi.

Nippi was found in a home on the 1400 block of 12th Avenue on May 14. He’d apparently died from injuries.

Police were told a person had entered the home and assaulted Nippi with a weapon before leaving the scene.

Earlier this week, police said Pascal was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for breaching the conditions of a long-term supervision order.

Pascal was scheduled for a court appearance in Regina Friday morning.
