An autopsy was done on Thursday, May 6 and the death of 64-year-old Peter Meyer was initially deemed suspicious.

Edmonton police said Thursday his death is now considered a homicide. The cause of death was not released “for investigative purposes.”

On Wednesday, 29-year-old Jordan Difrancesco was arrested and charged with manslaughter in relation to Meyer’s death.
