Two men were convicted Friday of beating Andrew Mixemong to death behind the Midland, Ont. deli where his wife worked in 2012.

Mixemong, a 59-year-old aboriginal man, died of his injuries following the vicious beating behind Dino's deli.

Jessy Herlichka was convicted of second-degree murder. His co-accused, Paul McClung, was convicted of manslaughter.

Both men are now 29-years-old.

The Barrie, Ont. court heard Herlichka beat Mixemong in an alleyway while McClung stopped others from interfering.

On the night of the attack, Mixemong was picking his wife up from work when he intervened in a heated exchange between Herlichka and McClung and the deli's staff.

The jury also watched surveillance showing the deadly confrontation, which showed Mixemong confronting the pair after they approached his wife near the dumpsters behind the eatery.

Sentencing for the two men is set for June 18 and 19.
