Hamilton Police make arrests in Brock Beck murder investigation

Hamilton Police say four people have been arrested in murder of Brock Beck.

The 20-year-old was found stabbed outside a home on Binbrook Rd. on July 26. He died in hospital.

A teenage boy who was with Beck at the time was also injured. He was treated in hospital and was quickly released.

Hamilton Police say the stabbing was fueled by a road rage incident that happened just before at the intersection of Binbrook Rd. and Highway 56.

Cam-Thai Khath, 18, of Stoney Creek, Petar Kunic, 19, of Stoney Creek and Thomas Vasquez, 22, of Hamilton were arrested on Wednesday.

All three are charged with second-degree murder. Khath and Kunic also face a charge of assault causing bodily harm.

A fourth person was arrested as police provided a media update on Thursday.

The arrests come a day after Beck’s family announced a $20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the people responsible for his murder.

“Brock was funny, lovable. He was a teacher,” said Beck’s mother Kim in a video released by Hamilton Police.

“It’s absolutely devastating. No parent should ever have to put their kid in a box,” said his step-father John Bialik.

Beck is the son of former NHLer Barry Beck, who also appears in the video announcing the reward and pleading for anyone with information to come forward.
