Toronto police are raising charges against two suspects after a 32-year-old man injured in an altercation in downtown Scarborough last week died from his injuries.
Police were called to an assault at a restaurant at 580 Progress Avenue shortly after 6:30 p.m. on July 11. The address houses Jack Astor’s and Scaddabush.
According to police, there was a heated argument between several men.
A 32-year-old man was subsequently taken to hospital with life-threatening conditions.
Two Toronto men, both 26, were arrested and charged with aggravated assault, assault causing bodily harm and strangulation on the day of the incident.
Toronto police said late Sunday that the victim of the attack died from her injuries at a hospital on July 13. Police identified him as 32-year-old Frank Harbalis of Toronto.
The homicide unit has since taken over the investigation, and charges are being upgraded in light of Harbalis’ death.
Police said Alexander Campbell and Tyler Josling will now face manslaughter charges in connection with the fatal incident.
They are due to appear at Scarborough Crown Court on August 24.
