Written by on March 9, 2026

Police say one of the suspects in a fatal January shooting in Vaughan, Ont., was arrested last week.

York Regional Police say officers found a man with multiple gunshot wounds near Winges and Rowntree Dairy roads on Jan. 26.

The victim was taken to a hospital before succumbing to his injuries.

Police say a 19-year-old suspect from Mississauga was arrested in the northern Ontario town of Moosonee on Thursday and charged with first-degree murder and arson.

Police are still looking for a second suspect, a 19-year-old man from Edmonton who is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for murder and arson charges.

That man is also wanted in a fatal shooting outside a Toronto shopping centre on Feb. 7.
