Burnaby residents Taitusi Vikilani and Jesse Sellam have been named as the two men accused of killing a North Vancouver man on Feb. 15 at Edmonds station.
Earlier this week, police announced 18-year-old Vikilani and 22-year-old Sellam had been charged in the death of James Enright.
Enright died in hospital after he was stabbed during an altercation at the Edmonds SkyTrain station bus loop shortly before 1 a.m. on Feb. 15.
Investigators allege the 27-year-old was in the wrong place at the wrong time and “died because he tried to help someone.”
Vikilani, a Grade 12 student at Burnaby Central Secondary School and well-known Burnaby Lake rugby player, is charged with manslaughter and assault causing bodily harm, while Sellam is charged with second-degree murder.
Sellam graduated from Moscrop Secondary School in 2011. He also played soccer in Burnaby.
Vikilani and Sellam remain in custody at this time. Both are scheduled to appear in Vancouver provincial court on March 10.
