Mundi had died from his injuries Wednesday, CPS said.

The stabbing occurred around 8:40 p.m. Officers were dispatched to the 0-100 block of Dermot Baldwin Way S.E. for reports of a stabbing and robbery.
'Upon arrival, officers located a man suffering from what appeared to be stab wounds,' a previous news release stated, adding the victim was transported to hospital in life-threatening condition.
Immediately following the incident, members of the Mounted Patrol Team who were already patrolling the area located and arrested two suspects nearby, CPS said.
One of those two suspects also had stab wounds and was transported to hospital as a precaution. However, CPS said it was later determined the person's injuries were related to a previous incident that occurred several days earlier.
Neil Henderson, 36, is charged with one count of aggravated assault, robbery and failure to comply with undertaking.
Donovan Collins, 34, is charged with one count each of aggravated assault, robbery and failing to comply with a probation order.
They were both remanded in custody and appeared in court on July 28.
