Officers were called to the address over the sounds of gunshots and were already in the area because of the increased police patrols in the neighbourhood in recent days, Const. Lisa Moskaluk told reporters outside the home on Wednesday morning. 

Once they got to the scene, they found the suspect’s vehicle and “contained” it, which led to a minor collision with a police vehicle. 

The suspect then tried to run away but was arrested after a brief foot pursuit with the help of police’s canine unit, Moskaluk added. The home’s residents and officers were not hurt but the suspect suffered minor injuries. Police found a handgun at the scene, .

A 23-year-old man from Innisfil, Ont. was arrested and is facing multiple charges. 

Moskaluk said the address was targeted in the shooting, but not the residents.

A pickup truck which police said the suspect drove was also stolen from the City of º£½ÇÉçÇø¹ÙÍøon Tuesday, the release said. 

Three other Vaughan homes were targeted and shot at in the early morning hours of Saturday and Sunday, including two on Via Romano Boulevard, which is a short distance from Lady Angela Lane. During the media conference, Moskaluk said the shooting on Wednesday is connected to the two on Via Romano Boulevard but investigators are still searching for a connection to the fourth shooting. 

Police are looking for a suspect vehicle, described as a dark sedan, which was seen in three previous incidents.

Police said they aren’t looking for any other suspects in Wednesday’s shooting but are still investigating the possibility that others were involved in the weekend shootings.

There is no immediate threat to the public, officers said , but there was a large police presence in the neighbourhood. People were asked to avoid the area during the investigation.

The slew of gun violence in the area also comes after a Vaughan father and businessman was fatally shot during a home invasion in Kleinburg, Ont, on Aug. 31.
