ON Thursday, April 17 at approximately 7:30 p.m., Hamilton Police received reports of a shooting near Upper James and South Bend Road. Police found a 21-year-old female with a gunshot wound to the chest. She was transported to hospital and later died from her injuries.

She was identified as Harsimrat Randhawa from India. Randhawa was studying at Mohawk College and was standing at the bus stop on her way to work when she was killed.

Through collected video, investigators have determined that the passenger of a black Mercedes SUV fired at the occupants of a white sedan. Shortly after the shooting, the white sedan fled northbound on Upper James and the Mercedes travelled westbound on South Bend.

Shots also entered the rear window of a residence on Allenby Avenue where the occupants were watching television a few feet away. Fortunately, no one was injured in the home.

ON Wednesday, April 23, Hamilton Police announced that they had recovered a white Hyundai Elantra and a black Mercedes SUV believed to be involved in the shooting death of 21-year-old Harsimrat Randhawa on April 17.

Hamilton Police said their investigators had spoken to a number of witnesses and collected hours of CCTV from the area where Randhawa was shot.

With Toronto Police Service’s assistance, the white Hyundai Elantra was recovered on April 20 in a residential area in northwest Toronto. The vehicle was towed to Hamilton for forensic examination.

On April 21, Hamilton Police also executed a search warrant at a central Hamilton residence and recovered the black Mercedes SUV. Forensic investigators are searching the car for evidence.

Hamilton Police said investigators have narrowed down the pool of people who are associated to these two vehicles. They encourage those involved in the April 17 incident to contact a lawyer and turn themselves in to police.

Hamilton Police thanked everyone who had come forward to assist with the investigation and provide important details.
