Winnipeg police say in a press release a 20-year-old man fled the province to B.C. after allegedly shooting and killing a man in the 200 block of McDermot Avenue on Nov. 5, 2022.
The victim has been identified as 21-year-old Tristan James Raynard Asham of Winnipeg.
Police say the shooting happened after the suspect and victim and the respective groups they were with got in a confrontation that turned physical. The suspect pulled out a gun and shot the victim in the upper body. The two were known to each other.
