Waterloo Regional Police have released security video footage of a man they want to identify in connection to Monday’s shooting at a Kitchener shopping plaza.

They say three men were involved in an altercation around 5:40 p.m. in the area of Fairway Road South and Wilson Avenue.

That’s when a fourth man fired multiple shots, injuring one man and two women.

"I can't confirm how many shots were fired, but again, we did respond to several reports of gunshots in the area," said Cst. Andre Johnson with Waterloo Regional Police.

The video, from a camera outside a Money Mart store, shows the shooting suspect opening fire.

Staff members at Ben Thanh Restaurant say their surveillance camera captured a woman running through their front doors and people rushing to her aid.

One of the victims, who family has identified as 32-year-old Hewa Waledkhani of Kitchener, was airlifted to a trauma centre with critical injuries.

They told CTV News Tuesday that at least one bullet hit Waledkhani’s shoulder and “he cannot move his legs yet.”

There has been no update on his condition.

Police are still working to identify the shooter who was last seen running behind the plaza and along the LRT tracks.

Shortly after arriving on scene officers and a canine unit could be seen searching the area.

They’re asking anyone who may have witnessed the shooting, but have not yet spoken to investigators, to call police at 519-570-9777, ext. 8666 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

"Anyone with information in regards to the suspect, we are asking they do not approach but contact police immediately," said Cst. Johnson.

The motive for the shooting is still under investigation and it’s not known if the men knew each other.
