Lohnes was attacked on Oct. 25, 2020, near his home in Pine grove, N.S. He sustained serious injuries and died later that week.

RCMP said in a Tuesday release that another altercation occurred that day in Bridgewater, between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m., near Dufferin Street.

Cpl. Mark Skinner tells Global News that investigators believe these incidents are related.

He says RCMP are asking anyone with information to contact police.

“Anyone who was going by, even someone who was driving in the area and has a dashcam, they may have not seen anything but if they could remember being in that area at that time — we’d certainly like to talk to them.”

“Any little piece of information can help us in an investigation like this.”
