Police have identified the victim of Toronto’s 36th homicide of 2017 as Awad Hurre, 34. Witnesses tell reporters there were so many shots, it sounded like Labour Day weekend fireworks.**********
Det. Sgt. Mike Carbone said “police are looking for four black males in their mid-20s who were wearing dark clothing.”
