Winnipeg police have charged a 60-year-old man with second-degree murder in the death of an 83-year-old man in August.

Roman Demczyszak was arrested and charged on Tuesday in connection with the death of Pajo (Paul) Radocaj, police said in a news release on Thursday.

Radocaj's body was found in a house on Cathedral Avenue near MacGregor Street on Aug. 16.

Investigators believe Radocaj and Demczyszak didn't know each other before the homicide, but met through acquaintances before Radocaj was assaulted.
