Officers began life-saving efforts until paramedics arrived. The man was taken to hospital where he later died.
A 40-year-old man who was identified Thursday afternoon as Robert Charnock faces one charge of second-degree murder. He appeared in court earlier on Thursday and was later placed back into custody. The identity of the deceased is not being released until next of kin is notified.
