A man has been named in Winnipeg’s fifth homicide.

Darren Robert Monias, 42, was identified as the victim in a bizarre homicide that police are releasing few details on.

Officers arrested Emery Miles McLeod, 38, at his Tomas Berry Street residence Tuesday night. McLeod and the victim lived together.

Police are still not confirming media reports that a homeless man found one or two severed hands in a dumpster on Donald Street Monday.

Police swarmed the dumpster sandwiched between a high-rise apartment
block on Smith Street and the Dhoom Restaurant and Lounge Monday morning
on Donald Street after an individual found “items of concern,” said police.

A large area was enclosed with police tape as investigators with white masks and coveralls rousted through the dumpster.

Police would not say where Monias’ body was found.
