Hamilton police are set to drop an update today on the one-year mark of a tragic shooting that killed 16-year-old Fazan Awan in Stony Creek. It happened March 6, 2025, around 4.20am near Highway 8 in Fruitland Road, where officers found a crashed white Kia. Sedan tangled with a red Acura SUV. Awan was behind the wheel of that Acura, hit by multiple gunshots, and he didn't make it after reaching the hospital.

The other two people in the Acura talked to investigators right there on scene, but no arrests have dropped yet. This hit hard in the community, shining a light on street chases turning deadly way too fast for kids that age. They also tracked down a stolen silver infinity linked to the pursuit, though other cars involved stayed ghosts.
