The funeral for an innocent bystander killed by a stray bullet on Gerrard street was held today, a day after the police released a youtube appeal for witnesses to step forward.

Previous NowPublic coverage on the shooting here.

A brother and sister have said their final goodbye to their father, an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire of a Toronto gun battle a week ago.

Mourners packed the downtown Wing On funeral home to pay their respects to Hou Chang Mao, a 47-year-old grocery store clerk who moved to Canada from China two years ago to build a better life for his children.

Friends of Mao shed tears at the simple service, describing him as a dedicated father and polite, hard-working man.

For the second time in a week, the Toronto police are turning to the
public for help in solving the city's latest murder of an innocent
bystander.

Police have released a video appeal for tips in the investigation
into the murder of Hou Chag Mao, who was killed by a stray bullet on
Jan. 17 outside the Fu Yao Supermarket on Gerrard Street East.
