Suspect in fatal stabbing at Etobicoke banquet hall turns himself in to police
Toronto police say a suspect wanted in connection with a fatal stabbing outside an Etobicoke banquet hall earlier this month has been arrested and charged after surrendering to police.
On March 10, officers were first dispatched to a venue near Highway 27 and Steeles Avenue West around 9:30 p.m. for reported gunfire.
Police said there had been an altercation with weapons involved, and a person was stabbed and went to a nearby hospital.
Police identified 24-year-old Shacquan Harrison as the victim. The Toronto man was pronounced dead later in hospital, police say.
A second victim from the same incident went to a different hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to the news release. A gun was also recovered by investigators.
On March 16, a Canada-wide warrant was issued for a 26-year-old man wanted for second-degree murder in connection with the case.
The man turned himself in to police and was charged with second-degree murder, police said in a news release Wednesday.
He is scheduled to appear in a Toronto courtroom on Thursday.
