Hamilton police have made two arrests in connection with the murder of a 39-year-old man who was shot and then shot from a vehicle in March.
Police were sent to the Tisdale Street South and Erie Avenue area on the night of March 6 after receiving reports of a man who had been thrown from a black BMW.
The victim, later identified as Shane Grenier, was found on the road with a gunshot wound.
He was taken to hospital but was soon pronounced dead.
After the homicide, police released an image from the surveillance camera of a suspicious vehicle, but months passed without interruption in the case.
That, however, changed on Wednesday when police announced two arrests.
Owen Nathaniel Silverthorne, 21, and Janeil Gordon, 21, are both charged with second-degree murder for Grenier’s death.
Police say the investigation into the homicide continues, although it is unclear if more suspects are being sought.
“Now that the charges are before the courts, investigators will not discuss the evidence related to the case,” a press release issued by Hamilton police states.
