EDMONTON – Police have charged a man with second-degree murder in last week’s death of a woman in Edmonton.
Wen Zhou Zhang, 53, also faces a charge of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
Officers were called on December 28 to a west end home where they found an injured 49-year old woman who could not be revived.
A suspect later turned himself into police.
Investigators said at the time that the man and woman knew each other and described the death as a result of domestic violence.
Police said the killing is the city’s 28th homicide of 2018.
