• TORONTO • Two suspects and a man wounded in an apparent daytime gun battle at an Etobicoke high-rise complex aren’t cooperating with police.Hmmm, that's a little vague... apparently, this "group" is divided into shooters and neat-freaks.
That leaves Toronto Police suspecting the 1:50 p.m. Thursday shooting is part of some sort of push into Tandridge Cres., in the Albion Rd.-Hwy. 401 area, by a group from Dixon Rd.
Supt. Ron Taverner said two women were charged for being accessories after the fact for trying to destroy evidence and mislead investigators.Gotta be careful with those g-words, right?
“They were helping dispose of evidence, trying to clean up blood.”
We sure don't wanna offend anybody.
