Toronto police say a second victim has died after three people were stabbed outside of a west-end mall earlier this month.
Emergency crews were called to a condominium on Sherway Gardens Road, just north of The West Mall and Evans Avenue, before 9:45 p.m. on Aug. 18. Police said a man and two boys were found with stab wounds. Two of the victims were taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries and the third was taken in non-life-threatening condition.
Police said the man, who officers have identified as 19-year-old Toronto resident Kristopher Quiroz-Brown, died in hospital on Wednesday.
Investigators previously said 15-year-old Mississauga resident Jack Meldrum succumbed to his injuries shortly after the stabbing. A 15-year-old boy was charged with second-degree murder in connection with Meldrum’s death.
Police haven’t said if charges have been laid in connection with Quiroz-Brown’s death, but a spokesperson said a suspect isn’t at large. Investigators are scheduled to provide an update on Thursday.
