A security guard will not face charges in connection with a double fatal shooting at an Toronto McDonald’s in February.
Two Toronto men, Donny Ouimette, 25, and Ryan Hind, 39, were killed when they were shot during an altercation with an armed, uniformed private security officer on Danforth Avenue east of Coxwell Avenue at approximately 3 a.m. on Feb. 28, police say.
Police say the two men were involved in a physical confrontation with the security guard, who was working at a nearby location. It’s still not known what provoked the confrontation.
The guard was also injured and treated in hospital.
A police investigation concluded there was no reasonable prospect of conviction.
“Investigators consulted Senior Crown Attorneys and provided an overview of the circumstances surrounding the deaths,” police said in a statement issued Wednesday. “It was determined that there would be no reasonable prospect of conviction, therefore no criminal charges would be laid.”
