Toronto police have arrested a man in connection with the city’s latest homicide.

Officers responded to the area of Manitoba Street and Legion Road in south Etobicoke around 4:30 a.m. Wednesday for reports of “unknown trouble.”

Investigators say security at a condo building in the area received calls from residents who reported hearing a violent interaction and the sound of a loud bang. Security located a woman with gunshot wounds.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene despite life-saving measures being performed by emergency responders. The identity of the victim is not being released at this time.

A male suspect was seen fleeing the area on foot. Toronto police say 34-year-old Kadeem Robinson, of Toronto, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with second-degree murder.

Robinson is set to appear in a Toronto courtroom on Thursday.
