The warrant stems from a shooting around Queen Street East and Rutherford Road in Brampton on Feb 3, 2022. Police said a man suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries that day.
An investigation was launched into the shooting, which police say was targeted. It was nicknamed Project Journey and has, so far, resulted in six arrests and several search warrants across the Greater Toronto Area.
Peel police said officers have also already seized five firearms, 10 kg of methamphetamine and a “significant” amount of fentanyl and cocaine.
The Canada-wide warrant is for Nakeem Jamar Johnson. He is described as five-feet-six-inches tall and around 160 pounds.
Police said he has short black hair, a black beard and brown eyes. He is considered armed and dangerous.
