Police Identify Eritrea born Ermiyas Zerzghi, 28, as Victim in North Edmonton Homicide

The death of an Edmonton man last month on Edmonton’s north side is now being investigated as a homicide.

Edmonton police announced Friday that the death of Ermiyas Zerzghi, 28, is being probed by the homicide section after an autopsy confirmed the victim suffered blunt head injuries and neck compression.

On Nov. 23, police were called to attend a residence near 157 Avenue and 130A Street to perform a welfare check. It was there that they discovered the victim. Police at the time deemed the scene as suspicious, but an autopsy was required to confirm the cause of death. The Edmonton medical examiner’s office concluded the autopsy on Thursday.

Anyone with information about this death is asked to contact the Edmonton Police Service at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a mobile phone.

Anonymous information can also be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.p3tips.com/250.
