“That male was transported to hospital where, unfortunately, he was pronounced deceased a short time later.”
Investigators believe two men were involved in the shooting, both were wearing all-dark clothing.
“There are two suspects with a firearm who are still at large,” Tracey said Wednesday.
“But we don’t believe there is a specific threat to public safety as a result to what happened last night.”
There will be an increased police presence in the area as the major crime unit and the forensic identification unit continue to investigate.
Anyone with information on this is asked to contact Guelph Police Service at 519-824-1212 ext. 7210 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
