Investigators say the arrest was made in Edmonton on Feb. 1. However, the suspect has not been identified because it is an “ongoing investigation.”
Meanwhile, officers say they are still looking for 22-year-old Yosief Hagos, who is wanted Canada-wide for second-degree murder.

They add he was last seen in Red Deer on Dec. 25 and that the public in Red Deer and Edmonton may be able to provide information on his whereabouts.
Police also say, “if anyone is attempting to assist Hagos in evading police, we are equally committed to holding them responsible.”
Officers ask anyone with any information about the suspect to call 403-266-1234 or leave a tip anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
