A third person has been charged with first-degree murder in the January 2025 killing of Wilson Sabarros.

He joins Mia Tejada, 28, and Omar Assaad, 26, from Ottawa, who were jointly charged with first-degree murder on Jan. 17, a week after Sabarros was found dead in a home on Pondhollow Way in the city's Barrhaven suburb.
