Arrests have been made and the victim identified in a Mission homicide on Monday.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the victim is 26-year-old David Leggat.

About 3:30 p.m. on Monday, Mission RCMP responded to a report of a man suffering from life-threatening injuries from a stabbing. First responders were unable to save the man.

Shortly afterwards, police arrested one man in relation to the homicide and on Tuesday, two other men were arrested. No charges have been laid so far, however.

A residence in Mission is currently being held, pending a search warrant, police say.

IHIT released Leggat's name in an effort to advance their investigation.

Police say the homicide appears to be an isolated incident and are calling for anyone who knew Leggat to contact them.

Witnesses are asked to contact IHIT or attend the Mission RCMP detachment.

Witnesses or anyone with dashcam video in the area of the 7200 block of Park Street between 1 and 4 p.m. Monday is asked to contact the IHIT Information Line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or email at [email protected].
