At approximately 3 a.m., yesterday, Thursday, May 25, 2023, the victim was located at the City Hall CTrain Station and transported to hospital where he sadly succumbed to his injuries. It is believed the fatal altercation occurred in Olympic Plaza and that the victim made his way to the CTrain station before collapsing.

As a result of the investigation and review of CCTV, one suspect has been identified. Kyle WESTCOTT, 26, has been charged with second-degree murder. WESTCOTT is scheduled to next appear in court on Friday, June 9, 2023. 

“This was an early morning, completely unprovoked attack on a defenseless and vulnerable victim,” says Staff Sergeant Sean Gregson of the Calgary Police Service Homicide Unit. “It was due to the exceptional work by our patrol members in co-ordination with investigators that led to the quick identification and apprehension of two suspects related to this homicide. It was then that our homicide investigators were able to identify a suspect and make an arrest quickly.”
