The man police say killed a Toronto police officer and a Milton mechanic in a multi-city shooting rampage Monday was in 2007 placed on a national “flagging system” for being a “high-risk” to re-offend following a conviction on two counts of robbery and carrying a concealed weapon, police said Thursday.
In an update on their sprawling, multi-jurisdiction investigation, Peel Regional Police provided greater detail about Monday’s shootings in Mississauga and Milton —which killed Toronto police Const. Andrew Hong and Milton auto mechanic Shakeel Ashraf — and about the gunman, 40-year-old Sean Petrie.
