Montreal police arrest Canada’s most wanted fugitive after fatal Yorkdale mall shooting

Bryan Fuentes Gramajo, Canada’s top fugitive, was arrested for the July 2025 Yorkdale Mall shooting that killed Kashif Jamal Bentley-Jean, and faces first-degree murder and extradition.

  • On Wednesday, Montreal police arrested Bryan Fuentes Gramajo, named Canada’s most-wanted by the Bolo Program in October 2025, in Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie.
  • Toronto police say Fuentes Gramajo is wanted on a first-degree murder charge in the July 17, 2025 killing of Kashif Jamal Bentley-Jean, who was shot in the Yorkdale Shopping Centre parking lot and pronounced dead at the scene.
  • Mélanie Dupont said the arrest involved a SWAT response because he was considered dangerous, and Fuentes Gramajo is the second suspect arrested after Bradley Lucate-Nicolas while Toronto police seek Jimmy Prudent.
  • He was due to appear in Montreal court Thursday on a first-degree murder charge, and Toronto police say he will be transferred to Toronto to appear March 10.
  • SPVM said it contributed to the investigation led by Toronto Police Service and is pleased with its role; Bolo Program now lists All Boivin as top fugitive while Jimmy Prudent remains wanted.
