A man charged in the violent and fatal mugging of a Collingwood senior in 2019 will be back in court next week as his case continues to proceed through the judicial system.
Caleb Burgler was charged first with robbery and aggravated assault, and later with second-degree murder related to the death of 86-year-old Collingwood resident Marion Fenwick.
On Sept. 14, 2019, Marion Fenwick was walking on Market Lane in Collingwood when she was assaulted and knocked to the ground by a man riding a bike. The suspect stole her purse and fled. Fenwick died later in hospital of complications due to the injuries she sustained in the attack.
At the time of his arrest in 2019, Burgler was 30 years old.
Fenwick, a four-foot-ten-inch tall woman was mourned by the community. Friends and family set up a vigil on Market Lane, leaving flowers and candles on the corner in her memory.
Burgler is due back in court in Barrie on March 16.
None of the charges against Burgler have been proven in court.
