Video shows alleged suspect in Toronto councillor's house shooting incident

Toronto police have released security videos and a composite sketch of a suspect believed to be connected to two separate incidents which allegedly target Toronto city councillor, John Filion.

This includes a shooting that took place last Thursday, April 4, when shots were fired at Filion’s house and vehicle.

Three weeks prior to the shooting, on March 13, police say a man armed with a weapon knocked on Filion’s door.

The suspect then attacked the man who answered the door with an unknown object before fleeing on foot.

Police have also released a composite sketch of the suspect.

The North York city councillor spoke about the incidents last week, saying he believes the attacks were targeted and that they were related to his work as a city councillor.

Filion said both incidents were reported to Toronto Police at the time they occurred, and he is confident that police are now conducting a thorough investigation.

“In order not to compromise that investigation, I will not be publicly speculating on who I think might be involved or what their motives might be,” said Filion.
