Two suspects are in police custody in relation to a suspicious death in downtown Calgary earlier this week.

Calgary police say they have laid second-degree murder charges against the pair after a man in his mid-20s was found dead in an apartment building located in the 200 block of 6 Avenue S.E. on Tuesday night.

Police initially responded to a complaint at the building around 9:40 p.m. The victim, whose identity has not been released, was found dead inside one of the units. An autopsy is scheduled for Friday.

In an update Thursday morning, Calgary police said they believe the suspects and the victim knew each other and that “a fatal assault occurred as a result of a domestic-related matter.”

Police said further details about the relationship between the three people will not be released at this time.
