York Regional Police have issued a Canada-wide warrant for a woman wanted in connection with the fatal shooting of a 27-year-old man in Markham in February.
On Feb. 10, 2017, police responded to a home on Hillwood Street, near McCowan Road and Bur Oak Avenue, for a weapons call.
When officers arrived at the residence, they found a man, later identified as 27-year-old Noel Williams, suffering from gunshot wounds.
