A suspect has been charged in connection with a shooting in Oakville earlier this week that left a 35-year-old man fighting for his life in hospital.
Shots were fired in the area of a shopping plaza at Cornwall and Trafalgar roads on Aug. 4 at around 11 a.m.
The victim, who was seen having breakfast at a diner moments before he was shot, was rushed to hospital following the shooting. Halton Regional Police said Sunday that he remains there in critical condition.
A suspect who fled the scene on foot was apprehended a short distance from the scene of the shooting.
Police announced Sunday that he has been charged in the incident.
Montreal man Marley Dorphelus, 21, is facing a charge of attempted murder in connection with the shooting, police said.
He made a court appearance via video link Saturday and was remanded into custody.
