A 51-year-old man has been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a man in North York earlier this month, Toronto police say.
The victim, 69-year-old Mariano De-Marco, was killed in the early morning hours of Dec. 9.
Police said a parking officer found De-Marco at around 4 a.m., with a gunshot wound and no vital signs lying in a driveway on Fairholme Avenue, in the area of Lawrence Avenue W. and Allen Road.
At the time, police said they believed the shooting was targeted.
On Tuesday, police said a 51-year-old man from Toronto was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in De-Marco's death.
