Police seek information in northwest shooting

We continue to investigate a shooting that occurred in the northwest community of Evanston in July, and are now turning to the public for information in hopes of furthering our investigation.

On Thursday, July 11, 2024, at approximately 12:45 a.m., police were called to a residence located in the 300 block of Evanspark Garden N.W., for reports of a shooting.

At the time, it is believed the victim was travelling in his vehicle, and as he arrived home and parked on the driveway, two suspects emerged from a vehicle parked nearby and began shooting at the victim’s vehicle.

The victim attempted to flee the scene in his vehicle, and subsequently collided with an adjacent fence.

It is believed the suspects then fled the scene in a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

The victim sustained serious injuries and was transported to hospital.

Immediately following the incident, investigators reviewed CCTV footage and spoke to witnesses, however, we continue to ask individuals who may have information about this incident to come forward. This is believed to be a targeted incident and no arrests have been made at this time.

Investigators continue to search for the suspects and a vehicle in relation to this incident.

The suspect vehicle is described as a dark-grey Jeep Grand Cherokee with black rims and a dent on the back passenger-side. 

The first suspect is described as a man with a medium build. At the time of the incident, he was wearing dark-blue sweatpants, a balaclava-style mask, black runners and black gloves.

The second suspect is described as man with a slim build. At the time of the incident, he was wearing dark-coloured sweatpants, a black long-sleeve sweater and black gloves.

The third suspect remained inside the vehicle.
