York Regional Police say they are looking for a homicide suspect after a wellness check led police to a body at a home in Richmond Hill early Saturday.
Police responded to conduct a wellness check at a home in the area of Gracedale Drive and Shaftsbury Avenue – in the area of Bayview Avenue and Elgin Mills Road – at around 8:25 a.m.
When officers entered the home, they found an adult dead inside.
Police did not identify the victim or say how they died.
In a news release Saturday, police said they are now looking for 23-year-old Henry Ai.
“If you see Ai, do not approach, call 9-1-1 immediately,” police said.
They said he is not believed to be driving a vehicle, but he is known to use public transportation and ride-share services.
Police describe Ai as an Asian male, standing six-foot-two with a thin build. He has short, black hair and brown eyes and was last seen wearing a grey, long-sleeve sweater, white-collared shirt, black pants and black shoes.
Police are appealing to anyone with video surveillance from the area from Sept. 20 at 5 p.m. to Sept. 21 at 9 a.m. to contact investigators.
