Cops seek suspects, release video after shooting in Markham
York Regional Police are appealing for witnesses and searching for suspects after a man was shot outside his home in Markham.
On Thursday around 5:20 p.m., police responded to reports of a shooting in the area of McCowan Rd. and 14th Ave.
Cops say when they arrived, they found a man suffering from a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Surveillance video, shared by police, from the area shows the suspect arriving in a grey Honda CR-V sport utility vehicle (SUV).
The suspect is described as a male with a slim build, wearing dark clothing and white gloves.
The victim was seated in an SUV in his driveway when the suspect approached and shot him through the vehicle's door.
