A second person has been arrested and charged in connection with a homicide near Main Street and Dufferin Avenue on the afternoon of June 16.
On June 18, police arrested 24-year-old Tre Daniel Pelletier-Monkman of Winnipeg, and charged him with second-degree murder.
According to police, officers were called to the Main Street area around 1:36 p.m. on June 16 and found a man with serious injuries. The man was taken to hospital and later died of his injuries.
He was identified as 33-year-old Adam Albert Laforrest from Winnipeg.
Following the incident, police arrested Carla Bridgette Duck, 38, and charged her with manslaughter. The charges against Duck and Pelletier-Monkman have not been proven in court.
