The Toronto "Red" Star...

Is a little light on specifics, but... call me wacky... I'm guessing it wasn't Colonel Mustard - in the Conservatory - with a lead pipe...
Police have made an arrest in the case of Toronto's first -ever shooting inside a subway car. At the time, police said a woman was shot following a confrontation with three males.

Police are expected to provide more details at a morning news conference, including information on two other suspects still sought in the attack.

UPDATE: The Toronto Sun, meanwhile... ponies up
An underage man has been arrested and police are looking for two more suspects in connection to a downtown subway shooting about six weeks ago.

Police allege the 18-year-old man was the shooter in the incident, but was 17 at the time of the shooting, and therefore cannot be identified.

Cops are still looking for 20-year-old Emmaunuel Boakye and received a court order to release the name and image of suspect, Xbxaxix xaxax, 17
, also underage.

An 18-year-old girl was shot in the groin in the March 28 incident, which police allege was started when victim and the suspects bumped into one another while boarding the train.

Cops said the victim and the suspects did not previously know each other, but all of the parties involved were known to police.

FROM THE COMMENTS: It gets better
"BTW, did you read this one about the alleged subway shooters (from the Sun today): 'Boake, who is wanted on a bench warrant for failing to appear in court, has four court orders issued against him not to have weapons.'"

Jonathan Rodrigues was at home with friends when he was brutally gunned down on February 22. On Thursday, police released two names and two pictures of the men believed to be responsible for the murder.

Just imagine what it would be like if Mayor Miller hadn't "banned handguns."

LAST WORD: Hey, Oshawa... vote in "a ban"

After all, it's working out so well for Toronto.
During the arrest, a loaded .22 calibre handgun was found inside a homemade holster on the man, in addition to a bag of additional ammunition, a flare gun with "multiple flare rounds" and five knives and "multi-tools" knives.

David Grenier, who is known in the Oshawa area but is of no fixed address, faces several weapon-related charges and one count of breach of probation.
