MISSISSAUGA, Ont. — Police in Peel Region say a second suspect has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of an international student working as a food delivery driver last summer.
Police say Gurvinder Nath, a 24-year-old international student who lived in Brampton, Ont., was working on July 9 when he was allegedly lured and confronted by unknown suspects.
They say Nath had just arrived at a Mississauga, Ont., address at around 2:10 a.m. to drop off food when the suspects tried to take his car and a physical altercation erupted.
The suspects fled the area in Nath’s car, leaving him on the side of the road with life-threatening injuries and Nath died in hospital about five days later.
Police say a 21-year-old man from Brampton was arrested on Thursday and charged with second-degree murder, unauthorized possession of a firearm and careless storage of a firearm.
In November, Peel police had said they had charged a youth with second-degree murder in the case.
