Police in Caledon are asking for video footage and assistance from the public to identify an individual related to a shooting incident in the town.
On Aug. 11, just before midnight, officers were called to a large house party, known as “Shark Tank,” at a residence on Castlederg Sideroad. One person was located injured and transported to a Toronto-area trauma centre with an apparent gunshot wound. The victim remains at the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
