A 34-year-old woman is facing a second-degree murder charge in connection to the fatal assault of a man on a northeast street in May.
Police were called to the 5500 block of Maddock Drive N.E. at about 9:15 p.m. on Sunday, May 15 for reports of an altercation.
When crews arrived, they found Tyler Sanderson, 24, suffering from serious injuries. He was transported to hospital and later died from his injuries.
Police say they believe that Sanderson met a woman in connection to drug activity and that the two got into a fight in the area of Memorial Drive and 52 Street N.E.
Sanderson was able to make his way home and then collapsed in his yard where he was found by family members.
Lori Ann Heavenfire, 34, is now charged with second-degree murder and she is expected to appear in court on Wednesday.
Police say they are not releasing the cause of death for investigative reasons.
