A second man has been charged in relation to a shooting outside a hookah lounge in southeast Calgary that left one man dead and another injured.
Police said officers rushed to the scene outside Portico Hookah Lounge at 1806 35 Street S.E. at about 2:50 a.m. on Sept. 12.
Investigators believe two groups of men got into a fight in the lounge before being asked to leave. Once outside, the fight continued and shots were fired.
Police said two people sustained gunshot wounds. One victim, who has since been identified as 20-year-old Abdurahaman Oma Indiris, died from his injuries.
The second victim, believed to have been an innocent bystander at the scene, was taken to hospital in stable condition.
On Monday, police arrested 28-year-old Calgarian Samuel Lugela and charged him with second-degree murder in relation to the shooting.
