London police have laid a charge of manslaughter in connection with a death investigation from last week.
Police say emergency personnel were called to a Hansuld Street address at roughly 9:30 p.m. on July 23 and found a 33-year-old man in medical distress. He was pronounced dead in hospital.
On July 25, police announced an autopsy had been completed and additional testing was underway to determine the cause and manner of death.
On August 2, police identified the victim as Robert Cecil Joshua-Burke, 33, of London and the accused as Adrian Julian Toussaint, 26, of London.
Toussaint was charged with manslaughter by way of warrant. Police issued an update late Friday afternoon that he had been arrested at roughly 2:20 p.m. that day. He is due in court on Saturday.
