A 48-year-old man found with life-threatening injuries outside an apartment building last weekend has now died, prompting London, Ont., police to launch a homicide investigation.
Police said Friday that Darko Lukic has died in hospital and officers are appealing to anyone with information — or dashcam or video surveillance along Baseline Road West between Beachwood Avenue and Huxley Street from 5 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on July 20 — to contact them.
