    Vancouver has recorded its eighth homicide of the year after a man died following what police believe was an attack in a park in the city's Yaletown neighbourhood.
     
     
    Vancouver police Sgt. Jason Robillard says the 38-year-old was found seriously injured outside a new casino near False Creek just before 1:30 a.m. on Thursday.
     
     
    The victim was rushed to hospital and underwent surgery but did not survive.
     
     
     
    A news release from Robillard says investigators traced evidence to nearby Coopers Park.
