A man has been arrested, and another suspect remains wanted in connection with a murder in a Toronto Community Housing building earlier this month. Toronto police said 31-year-old Leeroy Chikonyora of Toronto was arrested by the RCMP Halifax Regional Detachment earlier Thursday. He has since been transported back to Toronto and charged with first-degree murder in the homicide of 34-year-old Christopher Gordon. Police said Gordon was found with traumatic injuries in the fourth-floor unit in the building near Flemington Road and Blossomfield Drive on the morning of Oct. 4. Despite life-saving measures, Gordon was pronounced dead, police said. He is the city’s 30th homicide victim of the year. According to police, the victim was not a resident of the building. It is still unknown why he was there. In a news release on Thursday, police also said that Chikonyora is also facing a charge of obstruction of justice. Meanwhile, homicide investigators are still searching for 32-year-old Cody Rudifo of Timmins. He is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for first-degree murder. “If located, do not approach and call 911. He is considered to be armed and dangerous,” police said.
