Community News MANDEL: Aspiring rapper senselessly 'executed' in 2017 Scarborough shooting Twin Brother Malcolm Ellis, 25, of Toronto, was gunned down at a house on Blacktoft Dr. in Scarborough on Friday, Nov. 26, 2021

On a Sunday morning four years ago, aspiring rapper Malique “Lil Mell” Ellis was on his way to his Scarborough apartment laundry room with his girlfriend when he was ambushed and shot 15 times in the hallway.

He was just 21 when he was killed, another young Black male murder victim who hardly made the news.

“Mr. Mebratu was in the third-floor hallway of 3121 Eglinton Ave. E. with a loaded firearm waiting for Mr. Ellis to leave his apartment. When Mr. Ellis left his apartment, Mr. Mebratu implemented the plan to kill Mr. Ellis that brought him to the third-floor hallway.

“In all the circumstances, I find the shooting was predatory in nature. It was tantamount to an execution.”

And an efficient one, at that. Mebratu left his girlfriend’s Mississauga apartment at 9:30 a.m. and returned 90 minutes later. In that short time, he drove to Ellis`s building at Eglinton Ave. E. and Markham Rd., lay in wait for him to exit his apartment, killed him and then fled the scene.
