A man has pleaded guilty to the murder of Alexander Lo, the brother of Lapu Lapu festival attack suspect Kai-Ji Adam Lo.

The B.C. Prosecution Service says Dwight Kematch pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree murder on Friday. His sentencing hearing has been scheduled for Aug. 11 in B.C. Supreme Court.

Alexander Lo, 31, was found dead last year in a home in east Vancouver, and police have confirmed he was the brother of the man now charged in the unrelated Lapu Lapu festival attack that killed 11 people.

Vancouver police said last year that officers responded around 1 a.m. on January 28 to a 911 call from a home near Knight Street and East 33 Avenue, arresting Kematch inside the residence where Lo’s body was also discovered.
