Toronto police say Rabih Alkhalil was arrested in Greece. (Toronto Police Service)Homicide investigators say another person has been arrested in connection with a gangland-style slaying in Toronto's Little Italy last summer.
Rabih Alkhalil, 25, of no fixed address, was arrested in Greece on Feb. 20.
Toronto police say they are working with Greek authorities to have Alkhalil extradited to Canada to face first-degree murder charges in the death of John Raposo.
Raposo was gunned down as he sat in a sidewalk cafe on College Street last summer.
The patio was crowded with soccer fans watching a Euro Cup match between Italy and Ireland.
Three other men have been arrested and charged in the killing.
