Police are searching for a cyclist they consider a suspect in the shooting death of Ibrahim Zoker, 23, on May 16 in the Callingwood area.

According to a news release Friday, the man was seen cycling in the vicinity of the shooting that night. He had a full-sized bike and was wearing a light-coloured top. The suspect may have had a bag or a headlamp at the time.

The next day he was declared Edmonton’s 12th homicide of 2018 by the medical examiner.
