The Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) Major Crime Unit is investigating a shooting in Oakville.

On June 28, 2025, at approximately 12:25 a.m., an adult male was shot while seated inside his parked vehicle outside Hashtag Garden Modern Kitchen and Lounge, located at 177 Cross Avenue in Oakville.

A suspect vehicle approached, and two male suspects exited and confronted the victim. During the interaction, the victim sustained gunshot injuries.

The suspects—both wearing dark clothing and face coverings—were last seen fleeing the parking lot in a late model grey Honda CR-V SUV.

The victim is currently being treated in the hospital for serious, life-threatening injuries.  No other persons were shot or physically injured.

Unfortunately, there is limited information available about the suspects at this time. It appears that the victim was specifically targeted in this incident, and the Halton Regional Police Major Crime Bureau is now leading the investigation. 

Anyone with information regarding this investigation or dash cam footage of the area between 11:00 pm (on June 27) and 1:00 am is asked to contact the Major Crime Bureau at 905-825-4776.
