Peel Region police say a suspect wanted for second-degree murder in the deaths of two women may be west of Toronto.

Police say they are searching for 33-year-old Joseph Ayala, of Toronto, who may be in the area of Dixie Road and Lakeshore Road in southeast Mississauga, Ont.

Toronto police say Ayala is wanted for second-degree murder after they received a call on Aug. 23 for a well-being check at a house in the Etobicoke neighbourhood in west Toronto.

They say they found an 82-year-old woman and a 60-year-old woman dead in the home.

The suspect and the women were related, police say.

Ayala is described as five-foot-11 with a shaved head, and he was wearing all black clothing.
