Edmonton police have identified a man shot to death in the north end earlier this week.
At about 3:30 a.m. Monday, police responded to a weapons complaint near 127th Avenue and 118th Street.
A man was found in a residential area suffering from a serious injury. Police said he was treated by EMS at the scene and taken to hospital, where he later died.
Police said the victim has been identified as Jordan Belhumeur, 37. An autopsy revealed he died of a gunshot wound and his death is homicide.
In March, police issued a news release asking for the public’s help to locate Belhumeur. At the time, he was wanted on several warrants including assault causing bodily harm, robbery, uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm and intimidation.
“Area residents are encouraged to check their home surveillance video and contact the EPS at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a mobile phone if any unusual activity is spotted,” the Edmonton Police Service said in a news release Thursday afternoon.
