A 27-year-old man suspected of killing a Toronto woman found slain in a Niagara Region park is believed to have fled the country.
Niagara Regional Police say the victim was discovered in Charles Daley Park in the Town of Lincoln – just west of St. Catharines – on Tuesday.
“Following the completion of a postmortem examination, police have identified the victim as 27-year-old Amanpreet Saini of North York,” police said in a statement released Friday.
Homicide detectives subsequently identified a Brampton man as a suspect in the woman’s murder.
Manpreet Singh is now wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for second-degree murder.
“Investigators have information to suggest that Singh fled the country shortly after Amanpreet’s body was discovered,” police said. “This is believed to have been a targeted attack with no ongoing threat to public safety.”
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Singh or this murder is urged to call the Homicide Unit at 905-688-4111, option 3, ext. 1009451, or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
