Two Charged in Death of Lecent Ross

Two arrests have been made in connection to the shooting death of 14-year-old Lecent Ross, police said Thursday.

“It’s far from closure”, she told CBC News.

He said more information would be released at a press conference at 10 a.m. Friday morning at 23 Division headquarters.

Detective Rich Petrie said the girl was visiting a home in the Jamestown Crescent area, near Martin Grove Road, when she was shot just before 11 a.m.

“I’m certainly not ready to say that this was done intentionally by her or even an accident by her”. “Whenever I see someone with a gun, I take it away and report it to police”.

Following the shooting, police said they were treating the event as suspicious, but say they were also looking into whether or not it was accidental.

The.40-calibre Smith & Wesson that killed her, a semi-automatic handgun, was seized by police to undergo ballistics testing to determine if it had been used in other crimes.

He added that investigators don’t believe the girl brought the gun to the residence.

She was pronounced dead in hospital about an hour later.
