The victim, Toronto resident Malachi Elijah Bainbridge, was found in a car suffering from gunshot wounds, police said.
Officers worked to perform life-saving measures, but Bainbridge died at the scene.
In an update Tuesday, police said search warrants were executed Monday and three youths from Oshawa were arrested.
A 16-year-old boy has been charged with first-degree murder.
