This man is wanted for an attempted murder in Vaughan, and a murder in Bolton

Two men have been arrested, but another is still wanted in relation to a 2020 attempted murder in Vaughan, and 2021 murder in Bolton.

Police say an individual was shot on Steeles Avenue in 2020, and recovered.

Then, in January of 2021, two suspects broke into a Bolton home, and shot two people, leaving a 65-year old dead.

Police say the other victim was from the Steeles Avenue shooting.

This week, police arrested two men, and on Wednesday, issued an arrest warrant for 48-year old Waheed Barakziye of London, wanted for 1st degree murder, attempted murder, and conspiracy to commit murder.

If you see him, do not approach, but call 911 immediately.
