46-year-old Adil Albert charged with extortion after shots-fired incident in Windsor
The Windsor Police Service has arrested and charged a 46-year-old man in connection with an ongoing extortion case tied to a shots-fired incident earlier this month.
The investigation began on November 2, 2025, when officers responded to multiple reports of gunfire directed at a residence in the 2500 block of Academy Drive. Upon arrival, police confirmed that several rounds had been discharged at the home. No injuries were reported.
Surveillance footage obtained from the scene revealed a suspect arriving in a black SUV, firing several shots toward the residence, and leaving immediately afterward.
During interviews with detectives from the Major Crimes Unit, the homeowner disclosed that he had borrowed $50,000 from an individual to assist with a down payment on the property.
After the homeowner ceased repayment, the lender allegedly issued threats, including statements that he would โsend people to his house.โ
Following the investigation, police identified Adil Albert, 46, as a suspect in the extortion-related portion of the case.
On November 13, shortly after 5:00 p.m., officers from the Problem-Oriented Policing (POP) Unit located Albert outside a residence in the 1900 block of Everts Avenue and placed him under arrest without incident.
Albert has been formally charged with the following offenses:
- Extortion
- Conspiracy to commit an indictable offence: reckless discharge of a firearm at or into a residence
- Obstruction of justice
While a suspect has now been charged in relation to the extortion activity, the November 2 shooting remains under active investigation, and no arrests have been made regarding the firearm discharge.
Detectives continue to seek additional information, including witness statements and video evidence, to identify the individual or individuals responsible for firing the shots.
Anyone with relevant information is asked to contact the Windsor Police Service Major Crimes Unit at 519-255-6700, ext. 4830. Anonymous tips may be submitted through Windsor & Essex County Crime Stoppers at 519-258-8477 (TIPS) or online.
