There are still many questions about what sparked the fight that day, with a judge in the case pointing out that it’s still unclear which of the three gunmen shooting towards the crowd actually hit the children, with two gunmen remaining at large.

Two years after a horrific gunfight at a one-year-old’s “Baby Shark”-themed birthday party in Toronto ended with three children shot in the crossfire, one of their dads facing more than a decade behind bars and a community trying to heal.

“I can tell you that the investigation continues. We never close a case,” Proctor said. “I can assure you teams of investigators continue to work that case.” The court found four men fired a total of 22 rounds of ammunition. Cadogan was shot in the legs. Police arrived to find three children hit: a five-year-old in the head, an eleven-year-old in the buttock and a one-year-old grazed on the forehead.

“Mr. George endangered the lives of a great many people, young children among them…he has chosen to embrace criminality and to act without any regard for the laws of this country or the safety of other people, even members of his own family,” he wrote. To figure out who one gunman was, the crown compared the man in the red hat in the surveillance video to pictures and rap videos of George to confirm his identity. He’s wearing a “Daddy Shark” t-shirt in one of those photos. That leaves two people who appeared to be on George’s side in the firefight who haven’t been arrested or charged.

Wilson said he’s worried about the ripple effect of the violence in the community. He said it needs more resources to ensure the kids will go on the same path as he did and not succumb to the allure of the gang lifestyle or feel the need to carry guns.
