Lethbridge Police have charged two males with first degree murder in connection with the death of a 27-year-old man. 

On March 27 around 6:30 a.m., police and EMS responded to a report of an assault at an apartment complex along the 200 block of 7 A Avenue South. Upon arrival, LPS says an unresponsive male was located inside one of the units and later pronounced deceased at the scene. The victim has been identified as a 27-year-old Lethbridge man. 

The investigation, being treated as a homicide, was assumed by members of the Criminal Investigation Section. 

On March 28, LPS says two male subjects were arrested without incident and subsequently charged. 

Police say they have evidence indicating this was a targeted incident between parties known to one another.
