Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a 41-year-old man was gunned down in the parking lot of a Mississauga strip mall Sunday evening.

Officers were called to 549 North Service Rd., near Cawthra, just before 6:30 p.m. Sunday where they found Huy Duc inside a bullet-riddled car. He was rushed to hospital where he was pronounced dead.

No information on a suspect has been released. On Monday, police asked anyone who witnessed the shooting to contact investigators.

Call Peel’s homicide squad at (905) 453-2121 ext. 3205 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS if you have any information.

This murder capped off a very violent weekend in the GTA. Another man was shot to death earlier Sunday night at a barbecue at an apartment complex on Dundas Street West, near Scarlett Road. Jermaine Smith was pronounced dead at the scene, where several children were playing when the shots rang out.

There were two other shootings in Toronto the same night -- one in the Eglinton and Birchmount area and the second near Sheppard and Keele.

Shots were also fired at a home on Honeybee Drive in Brampton on Sunday.
