OTTAWA – The suspect in a murder in Blossom Park in the spring is now facing drug and weapons charges in another city.

Jonathan Ranger, 33 year, faces 12 charges following a New Year’s Day raid in Thunder Bay.

Police in Thunder Bay have contacted Ottawa Police, as Ranger is wanted in the death of Nicholas Kim, 30, and the wounding of Katrina Galloway, 27, in a double-shooting.

Kim and Galloway were shot on Farriers Lane on May 24, 2016, and while he has never been charged in the incident, Ranger is considered the main suspect.

Galloway is the ex-partner of Ranger and the mother of his child.

Ranger is due in court in Thunder Bay Friday.
