The Durham Regional Police Service and Durham Regional Crime Stoppers announced a $15,000 reward on March 11, 2026, to help find those responsible for a 2023 murder in Oshawa, Ontario. Michael Nigris, who was 30 years old, was fatally shot on March 30, 2023, as he was leaving his job at a local pawn shop.

Investigators believe a suspect waited for Nigris for approximately 90 minutes in a stolen black Ford Raptor F-150 before the shooting took place. The incident happened at a plaza near King Street West and Park Road South, right outside the victim’s workplace at Cash Connections.

Police are currently searching for two male suspects, including the shooter and a second person believed to be linked to the stolen truck. While the investigation has remained open for three years, no arrests have been made in the case, leading officials to offer the new financial reward for information that leads to an arrest.

The victim’s mother, Karena Randle, spoke at a news conference and shared that her family is still seeking closure and justice for her son. Authorities are asking anyone with information about the suspects or the events of that night to contact the police or submit a tip anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
