Middlesex OPP are asking the public for help locating a suspect vehicle being sought in connection with the alleged murder Monday night of a 37-year-old London, Ont., man on Oneida Nation of the Thames.

Police believe the vehicle, described as a green, older-model Chevrolet Silverado with large side mirrors, was involved in the shooting death of Isaac John Doxtator at a property along Clara Road around 8:30 p.m.

No other details about the suspect vehicle have been released, other than that it’s also believed to have loose tires in the truck bed, police said in a statement Thursday.
