Toronto police say a warrant has been issued for an 18-year-old man wanted in connection with a fatal shooting earlier this month.
On June 9, police said, a group of people were sitting in a parked vehicle in the area of Vanderhoof Avenue and Research Road when suspects approached in another vehicle and started shooting.
Police said they received a call for the sound of gunshots around 7:30 p.m.
Officers found two victims, including a 20-year-old man who suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
The other victim, later identified as 20-year-old Maaz Jogiyat, was taken to hospital where he died.
On Friday, police said Maviya Tahir is wanted for first degree murder and attempted murder. He’s described as five-foot-ten, 150 pounds and having a light complexion.
Officers said he’s believed to be armed and dangerous; police are advising anyone who sees him to call 911.
