Case #: 25-8624
Police seek homicide suspect
The Windsor Police Service seeks the public’s help to identify a suspect in connection with a homicide near downtown.
Police were called to the 400 block of Wyandotte Street East just after 7 a.m. yesterday after a man was found unresponsive outdoors. Officers arrived at the scene and found a 53-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound. He was taken to hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.
The Windsor Police Major Crimes Unit has determined the victim was shot by a male suspect following a verbal altercation. The suspect was seen fleeing the area prior to officers’ arrival.
Investigators have since obtained surveillance images of the suspect. He is described as a mixed-race male, approximately 5’3” to 5’5” tall, with a thin build. At the time of the incident, he had his hair pulled back in braids and was wearing a black North Face brand jacket and black pants with a reflective strip along the thigh. He was later seen with his braids removed, wearing a blue hooded sweater, black pants and red shoes.
The suspect should be considered armed and dangerous, and should not be approached directly. If you see him, please contact 911 immediately.
