York Regional Police say they’ve charged five people in connection with an August home invasion in Vaughan, Ont., that left a father dead. 

Police say at least three male suspects broke into Abdul Aleem Farooqi’s home around 1 a.m. on Aug. 31 and allegedly stole cellphones for “monetary gain only” before fatally shooting the man.

Insp. Paolo Fiore says one of those suspects is a 26-year-old Mississauga, Ont., man who now faces charges including first-degree murder and robbery with a firearm.
