Man charged in city's 25th homicide
CJOB News Team reporting
11/22/2009

Winnipeg Police have arrested a man in connection with the city's latest homicide.
 
20-year-old Jordon Allan Costello was arrested shortly after 19-year-old Nolan Christian Norman was beaten and stabbed in a confrontation with a group of young men in Transcona following a fight at a home in the 300 block of Victoria Avenue in Transcona early Saturday morning.
 
Costello has been charged with 2nd Degree Murder and Fail to Comply with the Conditions of an Undertaking X 2. He was detained at the Winnipeg Remand Centre.
 
Police say Norman had injured a man in a fight and was later attacked by the man's friends.

Norman and a 23-year-old friend were both stabbed several times before they fled in a car to a nearby convenience store to call for help.

Norman died in hospital... the 23-year-old was treated for serious injuries, and is expected to recover.

The young man injured in the initial fight with Norman was also taken to hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries.
