Toronto police say two men arrested in a weekend shooting now face first-degree murder charges after the death of a 12 year old boy who was hit by a stray bullet.
Police had said the boy was out shopping with his mother on Saturday when two men allegedly shot at a moving vehicle in the area.
A 17 year old boy and two men in the vehicle were wounded but released from hospital later.
Police had said earlier this week that the 12 year old boy was in life-threatening condition.
Rashawn Chambers, 24, and 25 year old Jahwayne Smart were arrested in connection with the shooting and each face 28 charges, including attempted murder and aggravated assault.
Police have said the shooting was gang-related.
