20-year-old charged in Toronto shooting that left one dead, four injured

Toronto police say they’ve charged a 20-year-old man in relation to a shooting last month that left one person dead and four others injured.

Police responded to the incident on July 10 after shots rang out at a plaza in the city’s north end.

They say a suspect vehicle had driven into the plaza and shot at a group of five people.

Investigators say 20-year-old Mohamed Sow died of his injuries after being rushed to hospital in a private vehicle.

Officers arrested 20-year-old Malique Francis-Taylor on Friday and charged him with first-degree murder.

He was scheduled to appear in court Friday morning.
