Toronto Police have released a new photo of a suspect wanted in connection with a shooting that occurred in downtown Toronto in 2022.
The shooting took place on a busy street in the downtown core, leaving one person injured. The victim, whose identity has not been disclosed, was rushed to a nearby hospital and is currently in stable condition.
According to police, the suspect is believed to be a male in his mid-20s, approximately 6 feet tall with a slim build. The newly released photo shows the suspect wearing a dark hoodie and a baseball cap.
Authorities are urging anyone with information on the suspect’s whereabouts to come forward and contact the Toronto Police Service immediately. They are also reminding the public not to approach the suspect as he is considered armed and dangerous.
This is not the first time the suspect has been sought by police. In 2020, he was wanted for a similar shooting incident in the same area. However, he was never apprehended and has been on the run since then.
The release of the new photo is a significant development in the ongoing investigation, and police are hopeful that it will lead to the suspect’s arrest.
In the meantime, the Toronto Police Service is increasing patrols in the downtown area to ensure the safety of the public. They are also asking anyone who may have witnessed the shooting or has any information to come forward and assist with the investigation.
The motive behind the shooting is still unknown, and police are continuing to gather evidence and interview witnesses to piece together the events leading up to the incident.
As the search for the suspect continues, the Toronto Police Service is reminding the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Toronto Police Service at 416-808-2222 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
