Peel Regional Police say seven people are facing charges in connection with a deadly home invasion in October 2024 that left a 55-year-old Mississauga, Ont., man dead following a confrontation.
Police said that on Oct. 1, 2024, shots were fired at a home near Joan Drive and Central Parkway Drive at around 3:40 a.m. They alleged four masked men entered a home and confronted the people inside, demanding money and valuables.
One of the homeowners, 55-year-old Ruo Zhou Wei, was shot during the confrontation. He later died from his injuries in hospital.
Two others were also injured and taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
