After more than 30 years, Toronto police say they are now close to solving the murder of an East York arcade owner who was brutally beaten to death with a baseball bat on Christmas Eve, 1988.

Police previously said 50-year-old Nick Gournis was working late at the arcade he owned and operated on Kingston Road, near Victoria Park Avenue, when two robbers entered the business and attacked him.

“Not only did these people actually beat him but then they left him there to die. They didn't even bother calling any help.” “A lot of these older cases… DNA wasn't really a thing back then, and if it was, you needed large portions of DNA to develop a profile,” Smith said.
