This year, there has been an uptick in the number of individuals shooting at or into homes (including condominiums) in York Region--specifically in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Newmarket, and Aurora. All of these cities and towns have affluent neighbourhoods, more or less.
A double shooting yesterday at an industrial-park parking lot in Woodbridge, in Vaughan, has left one woman dead and an accompanying male suffering injuries that are not life threatening. The most detailed article I've seen online so far about this incident will be found at
http://www.yorkregion.com/news-story/719...ridge-shooting/The natural tendency these days is to assume the double shooting yesterday has an organized-crime angle to it because of where it happened (Woodbridge is one of three Little Italies that the Toronto area boasts and is home to members of the 'ndrangheta, Cosa Nostra, and Camorra) and the Italian surname of the identified victim (Barberi). A quick Google search of the company named in the article reveals a staff consisting mostly of Italian-Canadians.
