Victim in fatal Ogden assault identified: Calgary police

The victim of an assault in the Calgary community of Ogden died Saturday, police said.

The victim of a fatal assault that took place last week in the Calgary community of Ogden has been identified.

On March 26, officers were called to a home on the 2300 block of Crestwood Road S.E. around 9 p.m. for reports of a physical altercation.

A man was found in medical distress inside the home and taken to hospital.

Late Saturday afternoon, police issued an update saying the man had died.

Wednesday, following the completion of an autopsy, the victim was identified as 28-year-old Dor Thor Metkurjock.

The suspects fled the scene prior to police arrival, and have not been located. However, police believe the incident was domestic-related and that there is no threat to public safety.

Last week, a neighbour told CTV News that police activity at the home itself was not unusual, and that residents in the area have frequently contacted police about issues at the address.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 403-266-1234. Those wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, online or by downloading the P3 Tips app.
