Provincial police are seeking assistance from the public as they investigate the murder of a 38-year-old woman in Alliston.
Around 6:30 a.m. on Aug. 26, 2022, Nottawasaga OPP responded to reports of gunfire at a home on Kidd Crescent. A woman was located outside the residence with apparent gunshot wounds and transported to the hospital where she was pronounced dead. The name of the woman has not been released.
Police are appealing to witnesses who were in the neighbourhood of Kidd Crescent between 5:30 a.m. and 6:30 a.m. on that day. Anyone that may have home video surveillance, or a vehicle equipped with a dashcam is asked to check their device and contact police if they have footage of the specified time period. Any minor detail may be the key piece to this investigation.
Increased police activity in the area should be expected as OPP Central Region Crime Units and OPP Forensic Identification Services (FIS) continue the investigation under the direction of the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch, in collaboration with the Office of the Chief Coroner for Ontario.
