Trial ordered for 2017 homicide in Red Deer

A man charged in a 2017 homicide in Red Deer has been ordered to stand trial.

Gabriel Juma We Agotic, 35, faces one count of manslaughter for the death of Mathian Chol on March 29, 2017.

It was just after 6 a.m. that day when Red Deer RCMP were dispatched to an apartment to assist with a male suffering from serious injuries after being assaulted. He was eventually flown to a Calgary hospital and placed on life support before dying the following day. An autopsy determined Chol, who was 26, died by homicide.

Agotic was eventually arrested in Calgary on July 17, 2017.
