Police believe it was a targeted incident.

The arrest comes after OPP held a January 18 press conference to offer a $ 50,000 reward for any information leading to an arrest or conviction, an offer that is still valid.

Investigators say the suspects arrived and fled in an older, black BMW 3 Series sedan. They are described as young black men wearing dark clothes.
