Montague says detectives with the major crimes section believe the man was involved in some sort of dispute in a nearby rooming house and the altercation continued on the street.
Several people have been taken into custody and are being interviewed.
Police aren't saying how the man died, if any suspects have been identified or if there's an obvious motive for the attack.
