“The victim, a 49-year-old man from Eel River Crossing, N.B., suffered what were believed to be serious, life-threatening injuries,” RCMP said in a release.
The victim, later identified as Ronald (Roy) Savoy, died on Dec. 23 in hospital from his injuries.
Police are now investigating his death as a homicide.
“A 25-year-old man was arrested on November 29 in connection with the aggravated assault. He will be appearing in Campbellton Provincial Court at a later date,” police said.
