A 40-year-old Ontario man with a long criminal history has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the slaying of Tori Dunn in Surrey, B.C., earlier this month.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says Adam Mann is facing the murder charge after Surrey police found him while they were on their way to Dunn's home on June 16.

At the time of Dunn's killing, Mann was facing an unrelated aggravated assault charge for an alleged attack in Surrey three weeks earlier and is due in court over that case on July 2.

Police say they found Dunn with life-threatening injuries after being called to her home.

Dunn's father Aaron posted on Facebook days after she was killed that his daughter was the victim of a home invasion.

Investigators say Mann remains in custody.

Police say the investigation continues into the "tragic event" that "has shaken the entire community."
