(11 a.m.)

On Sunday, friends and family of homicide victim Kaylin Diggs will be marching to raise awareness about Kaylin’s death and speak out against violence.

On August 11, 2012, at 3:49 a.m., police responded to a disturbance in the area of Argyle and Sackville Streets. Officers located Kaylin lying on the ground unresponsive. He was transported to hospital where he passed away a short time later. The investigation has determined that Kaylin was walking southbound on Argyle Street when an altercation took place and he was assaulted and knocked to the ground. Investigators are confident there are people who have information about this incident and urge them to come forward to speak with police.

Members of Halifax Regional Police will take part in the march in support of Kaylin’s loved ones and will also escort the march. We encourage members of the community to take part in this event.Who:- Halifax Regional Municipality Mayor Mike Savage- Supt.
