A third teen has been arrested and charged in connection with the stabbing death of Abdoul Aziz Sarr, Toronto police say.
Sarr, 14, was stabbed near a fast-food restaurant in the city's east end on July 5 and died in hospital, police said. He is the 19th homicide victim in Toronto this year.
On Friday, a 16-year-old boy turned himself in to Toronto police, the service said in a news release. He has been charged with first-degree murder.
He is scheduled to appear in court on Friday at 10 a.m.
Last month, two other teenagers turned themselves in to police and were also charged with first-degree murder.

Staff at a community health centre in Scarborough described Sarr as a kind, hardworking teenager who had a bright future ahead of him.
