Three people have been arrested in connection with the death of Daniel Hoffman earlier in the week.

Police say Hoffman’s body was found inside his residence in the area of Harbour and York streets just after 5 p.m. on Wednesday.

Investigators say with the help of Niagara Regional Police, two women and a man are now in custody in connection with the murder.

Adriana Desario, 20, of Oakville, Niki Kirimi, 18, of Toronto, and Dawson Aguilera Jimenez, 22, of Toronto have all been charged with second degree murder. They all appeared in court for a bail hearing on Friday.

Police went on to say they believe there may be other criminal investigations involving the three under different names and are asking anyone with information to contact them.
