Two charged in Lydia Street slaying

A second man has been arrested after a man assaulted last month died from his injuries.

Police were sent to an apartment complex on the 100 block of Lydia Street on Dec. 21 and found the victim inside. Michael Allen Harrington, 42, died from his injuries on Dec. 24.

A 27-year-old man was arrested for aggravated assault the next day. The Winnipeg Police Service identified him Tuesday as Conrad Jesse Fiddler. He was arrested again at the Winnipeg Remand Centre on Monday and charged with manslaughter.

Police arrested a second man on the 100 block of Isabel Street on Thursday. Larry Walter Richard-Hall, 19, is charged with second-degree murder.

The slaying was the 22nd homicide investigation of 2025. An online fundraiser, set up by Harrington’s family to help with expenses before his death, said he had been stabbed.
