Hamilton police have arrested a 16-year-old girl who was one of three youths charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of a 33-year-old Mississauga man last spring.
Hayder Qasim-Rushdi was rushed to the hospital after he stumbled into a gas station on Upper Centennial Parkway in Hamilton suffering from life-threatening injuries on April 28.
He died in hospital two days later — and Hamilton police later arrested three teenagers.
