Jordan Sangwin, 46, is wanted on two counts of first-degree murder after Peel police say he killed his parents at their Mississauga home on June 18. He was spotted near Toronto's High Park at around 11 p.m. on Monday, traveling on foot, according to CBC News. Police warn he is armed and dangerous.
The victims — Carol Sangwin, 70, and Garwood Sangwin, 71 — were found with life-threatening injuries at their Port Credit home near Lakeshore Road East and Hurontario Street, insauga.com reported. Paramedics rushed them to hospital, where they were later pronounced dead. A Canada-wide arrest warrant has been issued.
Parents Found Dying at Port Credit Home
Peel police responded to a disturbance call near Lakeshore Road East and Hurontario Street on the evening of June 18. Officers arrived to find two people in their 70s in life-threatening condition, according to CBC News. Both were rushed to hospital and died shortly after.
Investigators with the Peel Homicide Bureau took over the scene. By June 19, they confirmed the victims as Carol and Garwood Sangwin. By June 20, a Canada-wide warrant was issued for their son Jordan on two counts of first-degree murder, Toronto Today reported. First-degree murder under Canadian law means the killing was planned and deliberate.
Fugitive Spotted on Foot Near High Park
Surveillance footage captured Sangwin in Toronto's High Park neighborhood at approximately 11 p.m. on Monday, June 22, according to CBC News. He was traveling on foot and carrying a black duffle bag. Police say that detail matters — it suggests he may have supplies for an extended stretch on the run.
High Park spans 161 hectares of forest and trails, making it hard to search. The Toronto Police Service joined Peel police in the hunt, focusing on wooded areas in and around the park. Sangwin is described as white, medium build, with short salt-and-pepper hair. He was last seen wearing a grey long-sleeved shirt and dark shorts, insauga.com reported.
Police Urge Public: Call 911, Do Not Approach
Peel police spokesperson Constable Tyler Bell-Morena was direct in his warning. "We are asking the public that if you see Jordan, do not approach him," he said. "Call 911 immediately. He is considered armed and dangerous." Photos and video of Sangwin have been released to help the public identify him, according to Yahoo News.
Anyone with a tip can call the Peel Homicide Bureau at 905-453-2121, ext. 3205. Anonymous tips go to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Police also warned that anyone who helps Sangwin — by giving him food, shelter, or a ride — could face criminal charges under Canadian law.
Quiet Port Credit Community Left in Shock
The Sangwin home sits in Port Credit, a lakeside neighborhood in Mississauga known for being calm and safe. Neighbors described Carol and Garwood Sangwin as "kind, quiet" residents, CBC News reported. The violent nature of the crime has shaken the community deeply.
As of June 24, Sangwin remains at large. The search spans at least two cities and roughly 20 to 25 kilometers from the crime scene to the last known sighting. Police say the manhunt is active and ongoing, and they continue to urge anyone who spots him to call 911 immediately rather than intervene.
