Police have made an arrest in connection to a shooting in a Kitchener cemetery last summer.

At the time, police said two men had met in the cemetery around 5:40 a.m. and one was shot in the leg.

The accused is now charged with:

  • Robbery with a firearm
  • Aggravated assault
  • Point firearm
  • Discharge with intent
  • Possession of a firearm while prohibited
  • Possession firearm while not licensed
