An assault earlier this month has turned into a homicide investigation for Winnipeg police after the victim died of his injuries Wednesday.
Police said the assault was initially reported in the 300 block of Princess Street on the morning of April 11.
It turned out the incident had happened three days earlier, near Main Street and Stella Avenue, but emergency services weren’t contacted until his situation worsened.
The man, 25-year-old Leo Charles Martin-Shea, was taken to hospital in unstable condition with what police are calling life-altering injuries, where he later died.
