Father charged with murdering son's alleged killer to have hearing

The man is charged with first-degree murder.

PRINCE ALBERT – A preliminary hearing will be held on Sept. 11 for a 65-year-old man accused of running over and killing a man who had been previously convicted of killing his son.

Reginald Durocher was charged with first-degree murder after 34-year-old Ryan Clark was fatally hit by a vehicle while he was walking outside of a business on Highway 2 in Northside on April 4, 2023.

Just five months prior, Clark’s second-degree murder conviction in the death of Christopher Durocher was overturned by the Supreme Court of Canada. They had ordered a new trial for Clark who had been found guilty in 2018 in Prince Albert Court of Queen’s Bench. He was sentenced to life in prison.

Christopher Durocher's body was found by police inside his trailer on his parent's Christopher Lake acreage on Oct. 2, 2016.
