The shooting victim remained in hospital for a sixth day Thursday, listed in good condition, a London Health Sciences Centre spokesperson said.

The shooter and the victim didn’t know each other, police have said.

Thursday morning, police confirmed to The Free Press the white sedan seized Wednesday night was the one they believe to be “involved in the May 11 shooting.”

“The investigation into the identity of the person responsible for the shooting is ongoing, and investigators continue to appeal to members of the public for information,” Const. Sandasha Bough, spokesperson for the London police, said via email.

Bough wouldn’t say if police used a warrant to seize the vehicle, citing the ongoing investigation.

The shooting happened in broad daylight, at roughly 4:30 p.m. The victim was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The Cruze, which police say was seen driving erratically in the area prior to the shooting, sped away westbound on Trafalgar Street before turning south on Marconi Boulevard and then west on Gore Road, police said.

Earlier this week, investigators published three images of the Cruze, hoping the public could help track it down. The vehicle has damage on the driver’s side, a smashed-out front passenger window and possible damage on the bumper, police say.

Several neighbours told The Free Press the vehicle towed away Wednesday night matched the description shared by police.

“It was definitely a white Chevy Cruize,” said a Bowcott Crescent resident, who spoke on condition his name not be published.

According to tax records, the home is owned by Tammy Lynn Murphy. A woman who answered the door Thursday morning declined to speak with a Free Press reporter.

“No comments,” the woman said.
