Toronto police have released a photograph of a man wanted for attempted murder after a double shooting near Yonge-Dundas square over the weekend.

On July 31, shots were fired near Yonge and Dundas streets in the city’s downtown core shortly before 1:30 a.m.

Police say two men got into a verbal confrontation near the southeast corner of the intersection when one of the men drew a gun from his waistband and fired four shots at the other.

One of the bullets sailed across Yonge Street, striking a second man standing in Yonge-Dundas Square.

Both victims – believed to be a 21-year-old man and a 24-year-old man – were transported to a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.

The suspect along with a group of people fled the scene prior to police arrival, police say.

Police say they are looking for a suspect identified as 22-year-old Alfredo Blass, of Toronto.

He is described as being approximately five-foot-nine, 160 pounds with a medium complexation and a tattoo that says “Yoanis” on his left upper arm.

Blass is wanted by Toronto police for several offences including two counts of attempted murder, two counts of aggravated assault, possession of a loaded, prohibited or restricted firearm and reckless discharge of a firearm.

Police consider him to be armed and dangerous and urge anyone who spots him to call 911 immediately.

Anyone with information about the investigation is being asked to call police at 416-808-5200 or Crime Stoppers at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
