Suspect wanted in Seaforth shooting incident arrested

Police have located and arrested the second suspect wanted in a shooting and car chase incident in Seaforth last month.

Huron County OPP say Karley Frayer was arrested in Stratford Thursday morning, with the help of local police.

Frayer faces charges including attempted murder, failure to stop after an accident, dangerous operation and possession of stolen items.

On October 18, officers were called regarding a stolen vehicle in Seaforth in the morning. Officers located the vehicle, and followed it in an unmarked police vehicle to a residence in Seaforth. Police approached the vehicle, and an altercation took place.

Officers shot and injured a 35-year-old suspect in the vehicle, who was later dropped off at the Clinton Public Hospital. The second suspect, the 34-year-old Frayer of Huron East, drove away in the vehicle and hit another vehicle, at which point the stolen vehicle was abandoned.

Investigators believed at the time that it was likely that Frayer sustained injuries in the crash.

Frayer is being held for a bail hearing before the Ontario Court of Justice in Goderich.

Anyone with information regarding this incident should contact Huron OPP at (519) 482-1677 or report anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
