Police say a man killed in the Manchester Industrial area on Thursday morning has been identified as 34-year-old Anthony Taylor of Calgary.
Officers were called to Macleod Trail and 55 Avenue Southwest just before 3 a.m. for reports of an assault.
Police said officers found a man, who appeared to have been stabbed, lying between two parked cars a few blocks away, in the area of 55 Avenue and 2 Street Southwest.
An autopsy was completed on Friday.
Taylor was originally from Halifax, N.S., but was most recently in Calgary, police said.
In a news release, police said the residence that officers initially responded to is “known to police” and “recent efforts have been made to address complaints and drug activity in the area.”
