A fourth suspect, aged 16, has been charged in connection to a fatal shooting in Brampton last summer, Peel Regional Police said on Tuesday.

Officers were called to a home on Milestone Drive on Friday, August 30, and found a man who had been shot.

He was pronounced dead at the scene. The victim’s identity has not been released at the request of his family.

Three suspects are already facing charges in the homicide investigation.

Parmvir Singh, 24, of Brampton, was charged with first degree murder, while Manvir Khabra, 21, and an 18-year-old male, both from Brampton, were charged with manslaughter.

The 18-year-old was a youth at the time of the alleged offence, and can’t be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, police said.

On Tuesday, investigators announced a fourth arrest.

A 16-year-old youth from Brampton was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.

“I want to commend our investigators for their diligent efforts that will bring justice to the victim and closure for the family. We will continue to investigate and hold those accountable for such senseless and heinous crimes that threaten the safety of our communities,” said Deputy Chief Nick Milinovich.
