Man faces murder, firearm charges after 2 Toronto shootings: police
A man has been charged in relation to two Toronto shootings, one of them fatal, after loaded weapons were found during a search of his home, police said.
Toronto police said a 21-year-old man from the city was arrested and charged on Wednesday with first-degree murder and a slew of weapons-related offences.
The murder charge was in relation to a shooting report on June 27 just before 3 a.m. On that day, police found a victim with gunshot wounds in the area of Cherokee Boulevard and Finch Avenue.

The same man was charged relating to a shooting in Toronto on Aug. 25. He faces yet more charges relating to firearms found during the searches, including an AK-47 and a Glock 9-mm handgun.
Police said he had a court date set for bail on Thursday morning.
