The incident occurred on May 9 at around 8:30 pm in the parking lot at Sheridan Mall, near Jane Street and Wilson Avenue.
When police arrived, they found Calvin Andre Scott, a Toronto resident, suffering from gunshot wounds. Emergency crews tried to bring him back to life but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
A suspect was spotted stealing a Toyota Corolla in the mall parking lot before fleeing the scene, police said at the time.
Service inspector Paul Krawczyk described the shooting as “brazen”, speaking to reporters at the scene.
“She is OK. This is relevant. “And whenever you see that, you know I could have my family here shopping, right?” he said. “So it is very worrying and we take it very seriously and we will investigate it as best we can to have a successful outcome.”
On Monday, Toronto police announced that they had issued an arrest warrant for a suspect identified as 28-year-old Nashon Marshall in connection with the shooting. He is wanted for second-degree murder and robbery while he was armed with a firearm.
Police released a picture of Marshall and described him as standing about six feet tall, with a medium body, brown eyes and black hair. He has many tattoos, including one that says “family first” on his chest, a “2750” on his forearm, a cash image on his right hand, the words “money makes the world go round” on his inner forearm and the word “pain” in his right waist.
Police ask anyone with information to contact investigators or contact Crime Stoppers anonymously.
