Mustafe Mohamud Hussein was seriously injured in a confrontation in the 100 block of 10 Avenue S.W. around 9:30 p.m. on July 3.
The 44-year-old was rushed to hospital where he remained in a coma until Aug. 5, when the decision was made to take him off life support. He passed away on Monday, making him the city’s 15th homicide of the year.
