A 23-year-old Toronto man has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with a fatal stabbing in the city's east end.

Toronto Police say the victim, Naham Berhane, was on Danforth Avenue east of Greenwood Avenue, when he was stabbed shortly after 3 a.m. on Saturday.

Police say he was stabbed during an altercation with another man. Berhane, 34, was rushed to hospital in serious condition. He later died of his injuries. Police say the suspect fled the scene after a confrontation with Berhane's friends.

Osama Abdulaziz Fili was arrested on Sunday. He was scheduled to make a court appearance Monday morning.
