Suspects wanted after possible shots fired in East Windsor

The Windsor Police Service is seeking to identify five suspects following a report of possible gunshots in East Windsor.

On April 8, at approximately 10:30 p.m., officers responded to a report of possible shots fired at a business in the 5400 block of Tecumseh Rd. E. Through investigation, officers learned that a vehicle with masked occupants parked outside the business at approximately 9:30 p.m. and yelled obscenities at an individual before departing. The vehicle returned approximately 45 minutes later, and two occupants tried to spray the victim with a noxious substance before once again leaving. The vehicle then returned a third time, at which point the driver drew an item that looked like a handgun and fired three shots toward the victim before fleeing the scene.

No injuries were reported as a result of this incident.

At this time, it is unclear whether the weapon was an actual firearm or a replica. 

The suspect vehicle is described as a green Kia Soul with a licence plate ending in 831.
