Calgary police say a 45-year-old Lethbridge woman has been charged in connection with the fatal assault of Trisheena Simons outside a northwest bank in February 2017.

Police were called to an RBC Bank at 4820 Northland Drive N.W. at 1:20 a.m. on February 22 for reports of a woman in medical distress.

The victim, idenitfied as 28-year-old Trisheena Simons, was taken to hospital but she died of her injuries two days later.

A subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of Crystal Mills, 45, from Lethbridge.

Police say the pair were known to each other and had met just recently before the incident took place.

Mills has been charged with manslaughter and is expected to appear in Calgary court on May 25.
