Shammar Osbourne, 22, of Wasaga Beach, Whom Peel Regional Police Charged With First-Degree Murder in the March 20, 2023 Shooting Death of Bryan Lara-Alvarez, 29, in Mississauga, Stood in a Collingwood Courtroom on Tuesday on Drug Possession and Trafficking Charges From a May 10 Springwater Township Arrest, CP24 Reports (October 6, 2026)

Shammar Osbourne, 22, of Wasaga Beach was one of four people Peel Regional Police charged on June 26, 2026 over the shooting death of Bryan Lara-Alvarez, 29, of Mississauga, and the count against him is First-Degree Murder. CP24 reported on Tuesday, October 6, 2026 at 5:36 p.m. Eastern that Osbourne stood in the prisoner’s box in a Collingwood courtroom that afternoon on drug possession and trafficking charges from a separate May 10, 2026 arrest in Springwater Township, and that his lawyer failed to appear to address the matter. The outlet says he is accused of trafficking opioids and cocaine. The account does not publish the specific counts on the drug matter, does not give dates for the virtual appearances in Barrie and Brampton it says are coming next week, and names no criminal organization, street gang or outlaw motorcycle club.

The Mississauga Homicide

According to the Peel Regional Police release of Friday, June 26, 2026, Bryan Lara-Alvarez, 29, of Mississauga was shot on Monday, March 20, 2023 at about 7:30 p.m. in the area of Dream Crest Road and Alicante Street, and was pronounced dead at the scene. The release credits the force’s Homicide and Missing Persons Bureau with the investigation and says investigators executed search and arrest warrants, which led to the seizure of a firearm and the arrest of four people. It carries the occurrence number PR230091429.

Chief Nishan Duraiappah of the Peel Regional Police is quoted in that release saying: “These arrests mark a resolution in a case that deeply impacted our community.” Neither the release nor the CP24 account describes the firearm, says where it was seized, or ties it to any individual accused or count.

The Separate Drug Matter

CP24 reports that Osbourne was arrested on May 10, 2026 by provincial police in Springwater Township after a single-vehicle crash on Luella Boulevard in Anten Mills at about 11:30 p.m., that officers reportedly found suspected opioids and cocaine, and that both accused were arrested on scene. The outlet says a 24-year-old man from Ajax was charged with drug counts after that arrest; it does not say whether he is also a co-accused in the homicide. CP24 words the charges against Osbourne on this file as drug possession and trafficking charges and says he is accused of trafficking opioids and cocaine; it does not list the counts.

The outlet says the homicide charges were announced in late June, a month after the May 10 arrest, and does not give a date for the laying of the murder charge itself. No officer or spokesperson is named or quoted in the October 6 account; it attributes information to Peel Regional police, to provincial police in Springwater Township, and to investigators.

Shammar Osbourne, Shamba Tull, Talena Farquharson-Miller and Ahmed Hassan are charged and every one of them is presumed innocent. No count named here has been tested in court. The homicide allegations are the Peel Regional Police’s; the drug allegations are reported by CP24 and attributed by that outlet to provincial police in Springwater Township, and are worded here as the outlet words them. The charges in the details box are reproduced in the Peel release’s own wording and have not been shortened, upgraded, softened or recategorised. No gang, outlaw motorcycle club, crime family, syndicate or cartel label has been used, because no source has used one. The incident is inside the Greater Toronto Area, in the primary footprint, so no further beat qualifier applies. Neither account mentions a publication ban.
