The victim, previously identified as Cody James, was taken to a nearby hospital where he later died.

In an update released Monday evening, police said a 19-year-old Toronto man was arrested and charged earlier in the day. Since he was 17 years old at the time of the shooting, he can’t be identified due to provisions of the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Police said a second male suspect is wanted in connection with the death of James, releasing a brief video of the suspect exiting a black minivan.

Anyone with information was asked to call police at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 5319 or ext. 5247.
