A Calgary man has been charged in relation to the death of a man found in medical distress in downtown Calgary early Sunday morning.
Police were called to the 200 block of 15 Avenue S.E. at about 2 a.m. for reports of an injured man.
At first, police believed 24-year-old Craig Cutter may have been injured in a nearby altercation that involved about 10 people.
Investigators said Friday there is no evidence connecting the two, but instead believe the man was stabbed in an unrelated altercation in the same area.
Cutter died in hospital from his injuries. His death was ruled a homicide on Tuesday.
Police said Friday 26-year-old Kyle Stanley James Bearhat is facing one charge of manslaughter in relation to Cutter’s death.
Anyone with information on the incident that led to Cutter’s death is asked to contact police at 403-266-1234 or to contact Crime Stoppers.
