The murder charge was in relation to a shooting report on June 27 just before 3 a.m. On that day, police found a victim with gunshot wounds in the area of Cherokee Boulevard and Finch Avenue.

The victim, 23-year-old Marsell Bryan, was taken to hospital and pronounced dead, according to police.

Months later, on Wednesday, officers searched four separate addresses and a vehicle, charging a 21-year-old man with first-degree murder.

The same man was charged relating to a shooting in Toronto on Aug. 25. He faces yet more charges relating to firearms found during the searches, including an AK-47 and a Glock 9-mm handgun.

Police said he had a court date set for bail on Thursday morning.
