On July 27 at around 5 p.m., gunshots and an injured person were reported in the rear parking lot of the Village Square Mall.

Police say Jesse Daniel Deshamps, 30, of Penetanguishene, was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

A postmortem examination by the Ontario Forensic Pathology Service confirmed a gunshot wound as the cause of death.

In August OPP say they found a vehicle of interest involved in the shooting.

Now an OPP forensic artist has created a sketch to help identify a person police say they would like to speak to.

Police believe this is an isolated incident and there is no immediate threat to public safety.

Anyone with information or video can contact Southern Georgian Bay OPP at 1-888-310-1122 or opp.southern.georgian.bay@opp.ca.
