Eight teenage girls each face a charge of second-degree murder in the “swarming” death of a 59-year-old man who lived in Toronto’s shelter system, police said Tuesday.

Det.-Sgt. Terry Browne said the girls, who range in age from 13 to 16, met on social media and congregated on Saturday night in the city’s downtown core, where they were allegedly involved in two fights.
