In the early hours of Friday, November 21, a residential area in Bossley Park was rocked by gunfire. At around 6:30 a.m., police responded to reports of shots fired into a home on Aberdeen Street. Fortunately, none of the residents were harmed during the incident.
According to police accounts, the shots originated from an Audi sedan, which quickly fled the scene after the attack. Following a swift investigation, authorities discovered the Audi abandoned and crashed at the intersection of Mimosa and Prairie Vale roads. This location was not far from the initial crime scene, indicating a hasty retreat by the perpetrators.
Inside the abandoned vehicle, officers reportedly recovered an automatic firearm, adding a critical piece of evidence to the ongoing investigation. The swift actions of the police led to the charging of two individuals, a 16-year-old boy and a 22-year-old man, in connection with the incident. Both suspects are currently facing legal proceedings as the case continues to unfold in court.
