A 26-year-old man has been charged with manslaughter in connection with the Saturday morning death of a man in west Edmonton.
An autopsy was unable to confirm the cause of death pending further tests, police said in a news release.
But police investigators have determined the death to be a homicide.
The two men knew each other, said police.
Police responded to a disturbance near 84th Avenue and 219th Street in the Rosenthal neighbourhood at about 3:30 a.m. Saturday.
When officers arrived, they found a 34-year-old man in medical distress. He later died in hospital.
This is Edmonton’s 10th homicide of 2018.
