Three masked suspects, armed with firearms and a hammer, broke into a home on Bridle Path in Toronto before 4 a.m. on Thursday, injuring three members of the family. Police identified one of the suspects, 23-year-old Daijohn Richards, who was shot and discharged from the hospital. Richards is wanted on multiple charges, including discharging a firearm with intent to wound, robbery with a firearm, aggravated assault, break and enter commit/dwelling-house, and possessing a prohibited device.
The two other suspects, estimated to be around 20 years old, are still at large. The victims, David Morton, his wife Doriana Zohil-Morton, and their two daughters aged 28 and 26, were seriously injured during the violent attack. Police Chief Myron Demkiw vowed to relentlessly hunt down the suspects, who fled the scene in a dark-colored SUV.
Home invasions in Toronto have increased by more than 35 percent compared to the same period last year, with the affluent Bridle Path neighborhood being a potential target due to its location.
