Toronto police officer killed in raid linked to US consulate shooting

A Toronto police officer has been shot to death during a raid tied to a March shooting outside the US consulate, reports BBC.
The officer was shot during a gunfire exchange at a high-rise building in the early hours of Thursday, the Toronto Police Service said. He was later pronounced dead in hospital.
Police had been investigating suspects who allegedly fired shots at the US consulate building in Toronto earlier this year, in what US and Canadian authorities described at the time as a "national security incident".
One of the suspects, identified as 19-year-old Zara Jabbi, remains at large and is considered "armed and dangerous", Toronto Police Chief Myron Demikw said.
"I would ask anyone that would see him to call 911 immediately," Demikw said.
Demikw identified the police officer killed as 43-year-old Marc Pinizzotto, who served as an officer for 18 years, including five on the Toronto Police's Emergency Task Force.
Another suspect was shot in the gunfire exchange and transported to hospital with life-threatening conditions, police said.
The suspect was later named as 19-year-old Nicholas Bennett of Toronto. Police said he would be charged with murder in connection with the death of Pinizzotto.
Police said Pinizzotto was "executing a high-risk search warrant as part of a co-ordinated series of five warrants" when he was shot.
Police say their investigation was focused on shootings, including the one at the consulate.
