Toronto murder suspect arrested in Saskatoon on Canada-wide warrant

WATCH: Toronto's Regent Park community mourns the loss of a beloved city worker in a 2021 fatal shooting. One of his accused killers was arrested in Saskatoon on Jan. 31, 2025.

One of the country’s most wanted fugitives was arrested in Saskatoon on Friday on a Canada-wide warrant for homicide.

Jabreel Elmi, 30, was arrested by Saskatoon police in an apartment in the 10 block of Assiniboine Drive on Friday. In a news release Monday, the Saskatoon Police Service said it executed the search warrant on behalf of an outside agency.

Elmi, who was number 24 on the Bolo Program’s 25 most wanted fugitives list, was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for a 2021 homicide in Toronto.

Police say they’re arranging to return Elmi to Toronto to face his charges.

Elmi was wanted for the 2021 killing of 27-year-old Thane Murray, a City of Toronto employee who worked in recreation programs in the city’s east end.

Elmi also faces two counts of attempted murder for two other victims who were shot in the incident in Toronto’s Regent Park neighbourhood, according to the Toronto Police Service.

Two others were also charged with first-degree murder for Murray’s killing — Toronto residents Noah Anderson and Junior Jamal Harvey, who were 20-years-old at the time of their arrest in 2021.

A fourth suspect, Rajahden Angus Campbell, is still being sought by Toronto police and is the subject of a Canada-wide arrest warrant. He’s considered armed and dangerous.
