A second city man has died after being assaulted. City Police have confirmed 43 year old Scott Crawford died from the serious head injuries he suffered while at A-J's Restaurant and Lounge on Manawagonish Road early on Easter Monday morning.
A 37 unidentified man was arrested and before Crawford's death was facing a charge of aggravated assault. He's scheduled to appear in court on May 8th at which time we'll find out if the charge is going to be upgraded in light of Crawford's passing.
Just a few days ago, 66 year old Duncan MacDonald, who lived in a rooming house on Prince William Street, died from the injuries he sustained after being assaulted on March 16th.
Another man, who was living in the rooming house as well, was arrested and will be in court next Friday. 35 year old Nicholas Logan was charged with resisting arrest and aggravated assault before MacDonald died.
