Two more suspects charged in Markham, Ont., home invasion, kidnapping

Police in York Region say two more suspects have been charged in a Markham, Ont., home invasion earlier this month that also involved an alleged shooting and kidnapping.

Police say officers were called to a home near McCowan Road and 14th Avenue shortly before 9 a.m. on Sept. 1 after multiple suspects were reported breaking in, and a 54-year-old man had been shot and seriously injured.

They allege a 29-year-old woman, who also resides at the home, had been kidnapped about an hour earlier.

Investigators allege she was intentionally struck by one of two suspect vehicles, then forced into one of the cars and restrained.

Police say four suspects, including two teenagers, were arrested at the scene of the home invasion and the woman was later found in Toronto.

Police say two more suspects, aged 21 and 26, were arrested on Thursday and each face multiple charges, including robbery with a firearm.
