16 and 19 year-olds arrested in shooting murder of Dwayne McMillan near York University



Two people — a 19-year-old and 16-year-old — were arrested Thursday in connection with a deadly shooting earlier this month in the city’s north.

Juts after 9:30 p.m. on Oct. 2, police and emergency crews were dispatched for reports of a shooting at an industrial plaza at 4801 Keele St. near Steeles Ave., just east of York University.

Once on scene, paramedics found 44-year-old Dwayne McMillan — suffering gunshot wounds and without vital signs.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

On Thursday, police announced the arrest of 19-year-old Jahnoye Carpenter of Toronto, as well as a 16-year-old male who can’t be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Both are charged with second-degree murder and arson, and will appear in Finch Ave. court Friday morning.

McMillan’s murder was Toronto’s 82nd of 2018.
