Peel, Durham slayings probed
Beaten Brampton man dies of injuries
In Oshawa, victim collapses near condo
By Gail SWAINSON and Amanda-Marie
QUINTINO,
Staff
Reporters
A Brampton man found beaten with a serious head injury two weeks
ago has died, becoming Peel Region's third homicide of the year.
And residents of an Oshawa neighbourhood were left asking questions
about the safety of their community yesterday after a 31-year-old
man was found dead Sunday, Durham Region's fourth homicide of
Alan MOHABIR, who was found beaten June 15 in the area of Denlow Dr. and
Verity Ct. in Brampton, remained on life support until he died
at Saint Michael's Hospital on Thursday, Peel Region police said
yesterday.
Homicide investigators are attempting to piece together the 20-year-old
victim's last hours, but a paucity of information has left police
appealing to the public for help.
"It seems like there was some sort of altercation that took place,
but we are still trying to find out what exactly happened," said
Const. Jennifer
BRYER.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Peel homicide
bureau, 905-453-3311, ext. 3205, or Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
In Oshawa, the yellow police tape that surrounded the Centre
St. S. crime scene where the region's latest homicide victim
collapsed Sunday has left local residents worrying that the area
has gone downhill.
"Eight, nine years ago, I was able to walk along the path alone
late at night, but not anymore," said long-time resident Mike
BROWN.
Durham police say emergency crews were called to a condominium
building about 9 p.m. Sunday to investigate reports that a man
had collapsed.
Sgt. Paul McCURBIN said the fatally injured man was found on
a grassy boulevard at the corner of Mill and Centre Sts.
Homicide investigators say evidence found at the scene indicates
he was killed on a paved pathway on the west side of Oshawa Creek
running north from Mill St.
The spot is just behind the low-rise condo at the corner of Centre
and Mill Sts. and within Storie Park.
"He was found with vital signs absent after receiving some type
of sharp force trauma to his body," McCurbin said.
The man was rushed to Lakeridge Health Centre in Oshawa, where
he was pronounced dead. Police are withholding his name until
next of kin can be notified. An autopsy is scheduled for today.
The area has a mix of new and older homes and low-rise buildings.
It is near the Motion Nightclub, where a 22-year-old woman was
shot while dancing last February.
The woman didn't realize she had been shot until the next day,
when an X-ray in hospital revealed a bullet lodged in her chest.

If I could make a wish today and keep it for a while I'd want
to hold your hand once more I'd want to make you smile If I could
turn back time again I'd give you back your life I'd make each
day a happy one I'd make it free of strife I'd fill the air with
scents of clover and put blossoms on the trees I'd bathe your
face with sunshine and caress you with a breeze I'd say things
I should have said each and every day I'd listen more intensively
to what you had to say If I could put in words the thoughts I
have inside I'd fill each page with laughter, a tear or two,
and pride If I could capture your beauty, a picture wouldn't
do I'd gather all the rainbows and let the sun shine through
I'd make the violins play soft the angels would sing sweet I'd
add some fragrant roses to make it all complete If I could do
these things for you, to show you how much I care I wouldn't
have to do anything… because you'd already be there
The family wishes to express its sincere gratitude to the staff
and volunteers of the Palliative Units of the York Central and
