Below is the Toronto Sun story.
TORONTO - Hours after a remembrance was held for seven victims murdered on Thanksgiving since 2006, yet another was added to the list.
A 26-year-old man was gunned down shortly after 11 p.m. Sunday out front of 90 Parma Ct., south of Victoria Park Ave. and Eglinton Ave. E., Toronto Police say.
Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo, who organized Sunday’s remembrance, pointed out the city’s latest murder occurred at the same housing complex where one of the seven Thanksgiving victims was also slain.
“Seeing this happen on Oct. 9th once again in the same area where 20-year-old Kareme Parks was killed exactly 5 years ago, especially after a vigil for all the Oct 9th victims, greatly saddens me,” she said Monday.
“Lawmakers and community need to get involved now with the police and what I am doing.”
Omololu-Olunloyo, who dedicates much of her free time to fighting gun violence in Toronto, said Parks’ mother attended her Sunday afternoon event in Regent Park and then held another vigil for her son just a few hours before the city’s 37th homicide of the year.
Officers responding to a call for the “sound of gunshots” found a young man suffering from gunshot wounds to his chest.
The victim, whose name was not immediately released, was rushed to Sunnybrook hospital where he was pronounced dead, police said.
Homicide detectives are awaiting the results of a post-mortem examination.
Few other details were available.
For now, the slaying is unsolved, just like the other seven Thanksgiving murders.
