Montreal police catch Canada’s most wanted fugitive

Montreal police (SPVM) arrested Canada’s most-wanted suspect, Bryan Fuentes Gramajo, in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie.

Canada’s most wanted fugitive has been arrested on a countrywide warrant in Montreal.

Bryan Fuentes Gramajo was wanted by Toronto police in connection with a July 17, 2025, shooting death in a Yorkdale shopping centre parking lot. He was subsequently named Canada’s most wanted fugitive in October 2025, topping the list of 25 suspects.

Gramajo, 24, is from Montreal and was picked up by Montreal police (SPVM) in the Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie borough at around 2:40 a.m. on Thursday.

He is scheduled to appear in court in the afternoon.

“The SPVM is pleased to have contributed to the criminal investigation led by our partners at the Toronto Police Service by arresting Bryan Fuentes Gramajo on our territory,” said SPVM Commander Mélanie Dupont, head of the Major Crimes Section.

Another Quebecer, Dylan Denis, remains at large and is also on Canada’s most wanted list. He is being sought for a May 14, 2024, homicide in Ahuntsic-Cartierville.

“We are convinced that there are citizens who have information that would be very useful to our criminal investigation aimed at arresting Dylan Denis,” said Dupont.

The SPVM arrested a 25-year-old man in Saint-Jérôme, and a 31-year-old man was arrested in Prince George, B.C., in June 2024, in connection with the case.

Anyone with information on Denis’s whereabouts is asked to call 911 or visit a local police station.
