Homicide investigators in British Columbia say four men have been charged with first-degree murder in the death of a 19-year-old man earlier this year.
The province's Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the men are in their 20s and are also each facing a charge of forcible confinement.
Police say a fifth man, a 19-year-old, has also been charged with forcible confinement.
Investigators say the Abbotsford Police Department responded in late January to a report of a man being assaulted before being taken away in a vehicle.
Police say the victim was located three hours later with severe injuries and died in the hospital just days later.
Investigators have said they believe this to be a targeted assault and not related to gang activity.
