“Our focus today is to offer support to Michael’s loved ones, as well as our guests and team members. “We are devastated by the loss of Michael Ferdinand and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends,” the statement said. The 500 million premier entertainment destination also has nine restaurants, a 2,500-seat theatre, and an event space. The hotel has 275 rooms and is part of the 96,000-square-foot casino resort, which opened in 2021. Later, Pickering Casino Resort released a statement. Pickering Casino Resort Hotel is officially open and accepting reservations. “I can advise we’re are looking for multiple males and females believed to be involved in this incident that did flee the casino immediately following the shooting.”
“We are working with the casino, reviewing surveillance video and we will release any further information in relation to the suspects once we get it. “Right now we are appealing to anyone with information to come forward,” Bortoluss told reporters outside the casino. Police say the casino and the hotel were closed for the investigation, and guests were being allowed to stay in their rooms or leave if they need to. The fear, anxiety and questions that team members have is understandable.”
