Police were called to an assault in progress at a restaurant at 580 Progress Avenue just after 6:30 p.m. of July 11. The address houses a Jack Astor’s and a Scaddabush.
According to police, there was a violent fight between several men.
A 32-year-old man was then taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Two Toronto men, both 26, were arrested and charged with aggravated assault, assault causing bodily harm and drowning on the day of the incident.
Toronto police announced late Sunday that the victim of the attack died from his injuries in hospital on July 13. Police identified him as 32-year-old Frank Harbalis of Toronto.
The homicide unit has since taken over the investigation and charges are being upgraded in light of Harbalis’ death.
Police said Alexander Campbell and Tyler Josling will both face involuntary manslaughter charges in connection with the fatal incident.
The two are due to appear in court in Scarborough on August 24.
