Kenny Morin, 20, was originally charged with aggravated assault and robbery in connection with the incident on March 15. Prince Albert police have changed the assault charge to second-degree murder after the victim died of his injuries in a Saskatoon hospital on March 20.

Morin made his first court appearance in Prince Albert on Wednesday.
The original incident occurred in a back alley near the 900 block of Ninth Street East.
