Police said Hersi was taken to hospital with serious injuries. He died three months later, on November 22, 2022.
Following a two-year Vancouver Police investigation, the BC Prosecution Service approved one count of manslaughter against accused Jordan Conway, who was arrested on September 6 by VPD officers. He is scheduled to appear in court on September 24.

On December 16, after a thorough investigation by the VPD’s Homicide Unit, Conway was taken into custody by the Emergency Response Team.
