Toronto police say a third man is facing a second-degree murder charge in connection with a fatal stabbing downtown two weeks ago.
Police said on March 6, just before 1 a.m., a stabbing was reported in the Queen and Sherbourne streets area.
Police allege an altercation took place between a man and a group of four men when it escalated and the man was stabbed.
The victim was rushed to hospital with life-threatening injuries where he later died. He was identified as 55-year-old Jeffrey Munro.
Two men were arrested on March 17 and March 18 — 36-year-old Hussen Elmi and Christopher Williamson — police had previously said.
In an update on Monday, police said they also arrested a third individual on Sunday — Jedidiah Creighton-Chevalier, 21. He has been charged with second-degree murder.
