The London Beat London, Ontario’s stream of consciousness
A number of warrants have been issued for a man that is wanted in connection with a shooting in the east end of the city two weeks ago.
On Saturday, August 25, 2018, at approximately 3:10 am, London police officers responded to a report of multiple shots fired in a parking lot on Dundas Street, east of Clark Road. When they arrived, officers found evidence of a firearm having been discharged. Shortly after the initial report of shots fired, a man was located at the hospital suffering injuries consistent with a gunshot wound. The victim underwent surgery for the injuries, and is recovering.
Investigators have since determined that an altercation between the victim and occupants of a white BMW sedan took place in a night club parking lot after the business was closed. Two males ran from the scene following the shooting and the victim was driven to hospital by a third party. The BMW was later located.
As a result of the investigation, 26-year old Dominique Michael Carter Mossel of London, has been charged by way of warrant with the following Criminal Code of Canada offences:
Aggravated assault;
Reckless discharge of a firearm;
Occupy motor vehicle with firearm;
Possession of a restricted or prohibited firearm without a licence; and
Possession of a firearm while prohibited.
The firearm involved has not been recovered. If Mossel is seen, investigators ask that you do not approach him, but rather call the London Police Service.
The investigation into this incident is continuing.
No other information was released.
Anyone with information in relation to this incident is asked to call the London Police Service at (519) 661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
