Two arrested in death of former UFC fighter Ryan Jimmo

Edmonton police arrested two suspects in last week's hit-and-run death of UFC fighter Ryan Jimmo.

Anthony Getschel, 23, is charged with second degree murder and criminal negligence causing death, according to a news release on Wednesday. Jordan Wagner, 21, is charged with accessory after the fact to murder. Where the men were from was not disclosed.

Witnesses said Jimmo, 34, was involved in an altercation with the suspects early Sunday. Jimmo had turned to walk away from the two men when he was run over by a pickup, which fled the scene.

The argument took place in the parking lot of an Edmonton bar.
