Windsor police have released additional photos of a man wanted in relation to an attempted murder investigation.

Police released an updated description and tattoo photos of an attempted murder suspect who remains outstanding on a Canada-wide warrant.

On Saturday, Feb. 27 police responded to the 3000 block of Downing Street for a shots fired report.

When officers arrived they found a vehicle with gunshot damage as well as a victim who did not sustain any physical injuries.

Police say the victim was driving in the area when two suspects inside another vehicle fired shots and fled the area.

One suspect was arrested without incident and charged with attempted murder, but police continue to search for Robert Labrecque, 20, of Windsor.

  • FOE – chest
  • Stand your ground - chest

He is described as a male white, 20 years old, approximately 5'5", approximately 130 lbs., slender build, brown hair and brown eyes.
