Another man charged with second-degree in death of former NHL star's son Brock Beck

An 18-year-old man joins the list of those charged in the stabbing death of the son of a former NHL player.

Hamilton police say Albin Gashi of Stoney Creek, Ont., was charged with second-degree murder in the death of Brock Beck.

Police laid the same charges on three men Thursday and say they are not seeking any more suspects in the case.

The arrests come after the young man's family offered a $20,000 reward in the case.

Police say Beck was found suffering from stab wounds following an attack on July 26 in which a 16-year-old was also injured.

Two of the men were also charged with assault causing bodily harm in relation to the teen's injuries.
