The victim was taken to a hospital before succumbing to his injuries.

Police say a 19-year-old suspect from Mississauga was arrested in the northern Ontario town of Moosonee on Thursday and charged with first-degree murder and arson.

Police are still looking for a second suspect, a 19-year-old man from Edmonton who is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for murder and arson charges.

That man is also wanted in a fatal shooting outside a Toronto shopping centre on Feb. 7.
