A $50,000 reward leading to the conviction of Kiesingar Gunn's killer has been extended on the anniversary of his death.
The Chief of Police has approved the extension of the existing reward in place and it will now continue until September 11, 2021.
Up to $50,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the killer, or killers, responsible for the death of the 26-year-old from Toronto.
On Sunday, September 11, 2016, at 4:04 a.m., the Toronto Police Service responded to a report of a shooting in the area of Liberty Street and Mowat Avenue.
It is reported that:
- Kiesingar Gunn, 26, of Toronto, was in the area when shots were fired
- he was stuck by a bullet and taken to hospital in a serious condition
- he succumbed to his injuries just before midnight on Sunday, September 11, 2016
- investigators do not believe he was the intended target of the shooting
Security camera video was released at the time in a bid for witnesses to come forward.
An artist's rendition of the suspect was also released to try and identify them. He is described as 18-22 years old, black, dark complexion, 5'11"-6', slim build, braided hair (possibly cornrows). He was last seen wearing a white hooded sweatshirt, with a black print or logo on it.
Investigators are hoping that by extending this reward again it might provide an incentive for those with information to come forward to police.
