Police in Hamilton say they’re working to piece together exactly what led up to the fatal shooting of a 45-year-old man at a house party in Flamborough over the weekend and want to speak with anyone who knows what happened.
The victim, identified by police on Tuesday afternoon as Tobenna Obiaga of Halton Region, was located on the shoulder of Highway 6 inside a bullet-riddled Mercedes-Benz suffering from gunshot wounds. He was taken to a local hospital, but died there a short time later. Obiaga is Hamilton’s fifth murder victim of the year.
Reid described the incident as targeted, although he could not say if Obiaga was the intended victim. Police said one of the victims, a man, was found near a home with non-life-threatening injuries. They said that he told them that he’d been shot at a party at a short-term rental. Those victims were located in the parking lot of a nearby gas station, he said, adding all of the victims are from the Greater Toronto Area.Reid went on to say that the initial shooting call came from two sites, but police have “realized now that through the investigation that the original disturbance started at a house party at a nearby short-term rental property.”
