Hamilton police say one man is dead following a double-shooting on Friday night.
Police say shots rang out from a dark SUV towards a blue BMW on Red Hill Valley Parkway.
Two people were shot and sustained serious injuries, police said in a press release.
Mater Abouchere, 27, died of his injuries.
Abouchere was in the driver’s seat and was able to bring the vehicle to the shoulder of the road.
The suspects drove away, exiting at Greenhill Avenue.
Investigators are asking anyone in the area around the time of the shooting to contact them with information that could help in the investigation.
“Investigators are continuing to establish the motive behind the murder of Matar Abouchere and urge those with information to come forward to speak with police,” said the release.
It was the second fatal shooting in the Hamilton area in two days.
