Russel Collins hit a man in the face during an argument at a house in Millner.
The 45-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious head injuries. He slipped into a coma and died yesterday morning.
Detective senior sergeant Scott Pollock says police are looking for the 21-year-old, who could have travelled interstate.
"They're keen to apprehend him and if necessary charge him whilst he's at large," he said.
"We don't believe Mr Collins is dangerous, we believe alcohol was a contributing factor in this incident and we will not be releasing the name of the deceased for cultural reasons."
