Another North Vancouver resident has been murdered — the fourth in just 10 days.

The latest gory death occurred at a home on the 800 block East 13th Street at about 2 a.m. Friday, when a 46-year-old North Van- couver City employee was stabbed in the chest with a kitchen knife.

Once again, police were treating the killing as a domestic dispute, and North Vancouver RCMP called in vacationing detective personnel to help handle the murder investigations.

Lorraine Theresa Degerness, aged 48, was arrested and was to appear in provincial court in North Vancouver later Friday charged with murdering her husband, Clifton Degerness.

Police had taken a small kitchen paring knife said to have been found at the murder scene, and believed to have been used to stab the man in the chest. They said the death appeared to have resulted from “an alcohol- related domestic dispute .”

Just three days earlier, a woman recently arrived in North Vancouver died in hospital in New Westminster after being found shot in the head, locked in the trunk of a car abandoned on a bush trail near Aldergrove.

Douglas Albert Reeves has since been charged with the first degree murder of his estranged wife, 57-year-old Mary Louise Reeves, which Langley RCMP believe centred on a dispute over the custody of children.
