A Toronto man faces a murder charge following the fatal stabbing of a student from Nigeria in a Scarborough parking lot.
When Toronto Police officers arrived at the parking lot in the Eglinton Ave.-Brimley Rd. area at 7:10 p.m. on June 25, they found two men who had been involved in an altercation.
An injured man — Ifeanyichukwu Oseke, 28 — was rushed to hospital where he later died.
Tamar Cupid, 25, is charged with second-degree murder.
The search for the then male suspect that was last seen fleeing the scene in a dark-coloured sedan, heading south on Brimley Road, started in the days that followed.
On July 1, police gave an update on the investigation and identified 25-year-old Toronto resident, Tamar Cupid, as the suspect in connection with the fatal stabbing.
Police said a Canada-wide warrant was issued for Tamar Cupid on the charge of second-degree murder.
In a recent update, police said Cupid was arrested and charged hours into the warrant.
He has appeared before the Toronto Regional Bail Centre.
