Man charged with attempted murder for August shooting in St. John’s
Police have charged a man with attempted murder following an August shooting in St. John’s.
On Aug. 14, 2025, Operational Patrol Services responded to a shooting at a commercial area of Ropewalk Lane where officers located a 40-year-old man with gunshot wounds. Throughout the day, police received reports of erratic driving and hit-and-run collisions involving a pick-up truck that matched the description of that seen fleeing the scene of the shooting. Investigators identified Dylan Walsh as the driver of the vehicle and he and a co-accused were arrested and charged on Aug. 20 with a long list of driving and firearms offences.
The Major Crime Unit continued to investigate the shooting and have since linked Walsh to the offence. The 27-year-old was scheduled to appear in court today charged with attempted murder.
Walsh will also face additional charges for an unrelated matter after he was located inside a vacant property on July 21 in St. John’s where a firearm and ammunition were seized.
