An arrest has been made in a fatal February shooting Winnipeg police are calling gang-related.
In the early morning hours of Feb. 9, police were called to the 200 block of Garry Street, where they found two men injured in a shooting.
One of the men, who has been identified as 30-year-old Abdulwasi Ahmed, was taken to hospital in critical condition, where he later died.
Police said they arrested a suspect, 25-year-old Gunni Abdi Hasen, on Monday at a downtown residence. Hasen has been charged with second-degree murder.
Both the victim and suspect were involved with criminal organizations, police said, although it’s unclear whether they knew each other prior to the incident.
