CITYnews halifax / By Mark Hodgins

A man is facing a murder charge in connection to a suspicious death in Bible Hill early last year.

The RCMP says a 42-year-old woman was found dead when officers conducted a wellbeing check at a home on Bomber Drive in January 2025. Her death was considered suspicious, and was later ruled a homicide by the medical examiner.

An unconcious man was found in the home as well, police say, and he was taken to hospital.

That man, 49-year-old Lee Andrew MacDonald, was arrested on Tuesday at a home in Bible Hill. He appeared in court on Wednesday in Truro, facing a charge of second degree murder.

According to police, MacDonald is being held in custody pending a future court appearance.
