Toronto police have identified the city's 26th homicide victim as a 25-year-old man from Toronto.
Police say on Sunday July 23, around 6:45 p.m. they responded to a shooting call in the Empringham Dive and McLevin Avenue area.
Officers arrived on the scene to find a man suffering from a gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead a short time later.
The victim has been identified as Demal Graham.
A Gofundme page has been set up for Graham's family by family friend Karen Clark. The page says Graham was a young father who was active in his community.
Clarke wrote on the page: "Demal was a devoted father, son and brother and an active member of the Malvern Community, who never missed an opportunity to run a joke with a neighbor or help a friend."
Clarke tells CP24 Graham was gunned down in the driveway of his childhood home as his daughter played outside.
Police are searching for a suspect described as a brown man in his mid-20s with some facial hair. He was last seen wearing a hooded sweatshirt and last seen speeding away on McLevin Avenue in a light-coloured, four-door sedan.
This shooting happened not far from another deadly shooting that left two men dead and a woman injured earlier that day.
Homicide investigators are appealing to anyone who may have any information at all to contact police at 416-808-7400, Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
