KAMLOOPS — The father of two girls who were found dead in a Victoria-area home on Christmas Day has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder.

RCMP say in a news release that 43-year-old Andrew Berry was arrested and charged after he was released from hospital.

Six-year-old Chloe Berry and her four-year-old sister Aubrey were found dead in a home in Oak Bay on Dec. 25.

A friend of the family has said the children’s mother notified police that her former common-law spouse hadn’t returned the girls as scheduled.

Police previously said an injured man, whose condition was not disclosed, was found inside the home and he was taken to hospital.
