The Toronto Police Service (TPS) say a man was attempting to get into the parking garage of his apartment at 40 Falstaff Avenue when he was shot. He was pronounced dead when police arrived on the scene.
The victim was 20-year-old Hashim Omar Hashi.
TPS also said that the suspect’s vehicle was discovered engulfed in flames.
“Investigators believe he has travelled to Kelowna and Calgary and are urging anyone with information to contact police. No matter how insignificant the information may seem, all tips are important and could be key to the investigation.”
Ali famously received a shoutout from Drake back in 2014.
