Fifth Man Arrested in Relation to November 2013 Homicide

The Calgary Police Service has arrested a fifth person in relation to the death of an 18-year-old man.

At approximately 2:45 a.m., on Saturday, Nov. 23, 2013, emergency crews were called to the 200 block of 10 Avenue S.W., for reports of a man needing medical assistance.

When crews arrived, they found the man suffering from critical, life-threatening injuries. The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he died at around 10 a.m.

It is believed the victim was involved in two altercations prior to his death. Following the first incident, the victim and his associates were separated from the situation, but a short time later the groups re-engaged outside a downtown bar.

An autopsy conducted on Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2013, confirmed that Lukas STRASSER-HIRD died as a result of stab wounds.

Four suspects have already been arrested and charged.

Today, Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2014, officers arrested a 19-year-old man in relation to this case. Charges are pending, and more information will be released tomorrow.
