2 more charged with 1st-degree murder in Riverdale double shooting
Two more people have been charged with first-degree murder in connection with a fatal double shooting in Toronto's Riverdale neighbourhood in April.
Toronto police said in a news release Tuesday that two males, aged 17 and 18, were both arrested this week and charged with two counts each of first-degree murder.
The charges are connected to the deaths of Quentin Caza, 18, and Jeremy McNeil, 20, both of Toronto. They were shot near Bain and Logan avenues around 11 p.m. on April 15, police say.
Officers found the men suffering from gunshot wounds when they responded to reports of gunfire in the area that night. One of the men was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other was taken to hospital, where he later died.
At the time of the shooting, police said there was evidence of clustered gunshots found at the scene, suggesting it was targeted.
A second 17-year-old was also charged earlier this month with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the case, police have said.

2 killed in Kawartha Lakes boating accident: OPP
Two men are dead following a boating accident on Sturgeon lake on June 8. (OPP photo) Two men are dead following a boating accident in the Kawartha Lakes region on Sunday afternoon. The incident happened on Sturgeon Lake, which is roughly 155 kilometres northeast of Toronto. Emergency responders were called to that area shortly after 3 p.m. after receiving reports of a canoe carrying three males that had capsized. In a news release, the OPP's Kawartha Lakes Detachment said one of the males was able to make his way to the shore, however two others were 'unable to remain afloat and succumbed to their injuries.' They added that there were no life jackets in the boat. The local OPP, including its Marine Unit, along with City of Kawartha Lakes Fire and EMS, and the OPP's Aviation team were involved in the lifesaving and recovery efforts. 'With capsized vessels and falling overboard the top contributing factors in boating deaths every year, a significant number of lives stand to be saved if boaters, personal watercraft users and paddlers wore a lifejacket or personal floatation device,' said the OPP, which patrols more than 110,000 square kilometres of Ontario's waterways.
