Police believe the suspect fired multiple rounds during the shooting in Seton, with stray bullets striking four surrounding residences, before fleeing the scene in a stolen vehicle.
Investigators say the same man was the target of both shootings, which are believed to be connected to organized crime.
In October 2023, police announced 26-year-old Thanh Nguyen had been arrested and was facing several charges, including attempted murder, unlawful possession of a firearm in a vehicle, possession of a restricted firearm contrary to a prohibition order and possession of stolen property over $5,000.
Stewart says after further investigation, Nguyen has now been charged with conspiracy to commit murder, as well as one additional count each of attempted murder and discharging a firearm with intent.
He will next appear in court on Monday, July 28, 2025.
In October 2024, investigators announced additional charges against two other men.
Masood Mohammad, 30, has been charged with attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Harliv Singh Cheema, 20, has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder and accessory after the fact to an indictable offence.
Both men will appear in court on Nov. 12.
Due to the level of violence, police said a significant number of resources were dedicated to investigating the shooting.
