A 36-year-old man is dead in the city’s second murder of the year Monday night.

Mark Ian Seymour, also known as Mark Bramley, 36, was found with no vital signs on the street or sidewalk near the intersection of Division and York streets around 11:30 p.m. Monday.

He was transported by Frontenac County paramedics to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

“We will confirm at this point there have been no arrests made,” Kingston Police spokesperson Const. Steve Koopman said. “There was information that there were two males, persons of interest or suspects, seen fleeing in the area.”

Police are looking for two suspects seen fleeing the area after the stabbing.

They are described as white, wearing dark clothing and estimated to be between five-foot-10 and six feet tall.

Detectives with the major crime unit are looking to talk to anyone who may have seen or heard anything in the area at the time of the attack.

On Tuesday morning, police steadily expanded the area they were searching from the intersection of Division and York streets westward into the Memorial Centre grounds.

The park at York and Pine streets was taped off into late Tuesday afternoon and Koopman said the building at 330 Division St. was also part of the investigation, as were areas west of where the man was found, because suspects fled in that direction.

The original crime scene was at Division and York street, that’s where the male was found outside,” Koopman said.

“Because the information is that suspects or persons of interest were seen fleeing on foot westbound on York Street, we are now sort of proceeding west from that area and we are seeing if any items or evidence of interest have been located.”

At one point, forensic officers wearing white paper coveralls lifted what looked like a knife from under a bush at the intersection of Pine and Alfred streets and placed it in an evidence box.

Koopman asked residents in the area to send police any surveillance video they might have, and he said all city residents should keep an eye out for anything suspicious.

Koopman said the killing was not believed to be random and that the public should not be concerned about their safety.

At the same time, he said, the suspects should be considered dangerous.

“Obviously, if they have stabbed and killed someone they are potentially dangerous,” he said.
