Third person hunted in 2023 murder of Brampton food delivery driver

Article content

A Canada-wide arrest warrant has been issued for a third suspect in the murder of a Brampton food delivery driver two years ago.

Peel Regional Police said the victim, 24-year-old Gurvinder Nath, was working in the area of Britannia and Creditview Rds. in Mississauga on July 9, 2023.

When he arrived at the delivery address, Nath was confronted by suspects who attempted to take his vehicle — a physical altercation then occurred.

The suspects fled the scene in Nath’s vehicle, leaving him at the side of the road with life-threatening injuries. He was transported to a trauma centre where he later died.

In November 2023, police said a young person was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. A second arrest was made in February 2024 when Jazaine Kerr was charged with second-degree murder and possession of a prohibited firearm.

On Tuesday, cops said a Canada-wide warrant was issued May 30 for Devaunte Thompson, a 25-year-old man from Caledon, for second-degree murder.

Thompson is described as Black, approximately 6 feet tall with a medium complexion, thin build, and brown eyes.

Investigators are urging Thompson to seek legal counsel and surrender to the police.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Devaunte is asked to contact the Homicide and Missing Persons Bureau at 905-453-2121 ext. 3205. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at peelcrimestoppers.ca.
