Second-degree murder charges have been laid against a 17-year-old male in relation to the stabbing death of a 14-year-old Winnipeg teen on Friday.

The victim was taken to hospital after being reportedly stabbed in the city's downtown. 

She had emergency surgery done on her but wound up passing away from her injuries. 

Winnipeg Police Services' Homicide Unit alleges the victim got into an argument with a suspect, who suddenly took out a knife and stabbed multiple times before fleeing the scene. 

None of the charges have been tested in court.
