A Calgary man convicted of killing his neighbour nearly four years ago has been arrested in Canmore.

Nicholas Rasberry had been out on bail pending a decision by the Alberta Court of Appeal.

Rasberry was convicted of manslaughter in the death of Craig Kelloway, a Calgary teacher.

Global News has confirmed Rasberry was arrested Monday morning and charged with three counts of breaching conditions of his release as well as one count of resisting arrest.

Court documents allege Rasberry was intoxicated and refused to provide breath samples to the RCMP in Canmore.

It’s also alleged he attempted to shut the door on officers at a hotel.

Last November, the prosecution asked a panel of appeal court justices for a murder conviction, while defence proposed Rasberry be acquitted.

Kelloway was stabbed 37 times in Rasberry’s Auburn Bay home on May 4, 2013.

The Crown pointed to the fact that three knives were used as proof it was not self defence, suggesting Rasberry made a choice to “put Mr. Kelloway down.”

Defence argued Kelloway was threatening to rape Rasberry and that he was provoked.

The original trial judge found Rasberry was not acting in self defence, but also said he didn’t feel there was an intent to kill.

In December 2015, Rasberry was sentenced to seven years in jail-but with credit for time served, he was left with five years and four months in his sentence.

Soon after, the Court of Appeal granted Rasberry bail pending the appeal.

The victim’s family has told Global News they want a new trial.
