Peel Regional Police say a 48-year-old male suspect has been charged after a 54-year-old Brampton man was found dead in July.
Police said officers were called to the Dixie Road and Advance Boulevard area, south of Steeles Avenue East, just before 12:45 p.m. on July 5 to check on the well-being of a man.

Officers called the death “an isolated incident.”
