Peel Regional Police are investigating a series of shootings and separate homicides across the GTA that date back to early November, which authorities believe involve the same group of suspects.
Officers were first notified of a shooting on Nov. 7, 2023, in the area of Cottrelle Boulevard and Thorndale Road in Brampton. Two suspects discharged firearms outside of a residence and are believed to have left in a black Dodge RAM 1500 pick-up truck.
On Nov. 11, 2023, police responded to reports of a shooting at a separate residence in the area of Lorenville Drive and Elbern Markell Drive in Brampton. Two suspects dressed in dark hoodies fired shots towards the home and fled in a burgundy Dodge RAM 1500 pick-up truck.
One week later, on Nov. 14, 2023, police were notified of a single suspect firing towards the same Brampton residence. The suspect fled in a late model silver Mazda 3 hatchback.
No injuries were reported in either of these incidents.
One day later, on Nov. 15, 2023, authorities responded to a homicide in the area of Royal Windsor Drive and Winston Churchill Boulevard in Mississauga. Officers located one male victim, identified as 29-year-old Jagraj Singh of Brampton.
Police said it is believed the suspects arrived and departed in a blue Dodge Challenger.

Authorities noted the same truck was involved in a vehicle fire on Olde Baseline Road and Creditview Road in Caledon.
This alleged stolen pick-up truck was taken on Nov. 14, 2023, in the area of Mississauga Valley Boulevard and Arista Way in Mississauga. Investigators are looking to speak to a person of interest concerning the theft of that vehicle.
A Peel Regional Police spokesperson said although investigators believe that all the shootings were targeted, the homicide victims were not the intended targets.
Police are urging anyone with information about these incidents to call 1-833-941-5570.
