A male has been taken to the hospital with serious injuries following a shooting on Sunday night in Toronto’s downtown east area.
The incident happened in the Cabbagetown South neighbourhood, near Sherbourne Street and Dundas Street East.
Toronto police said they were called to that area just before 9:30 p.m. after receiving reports of gunshots heard in the vicinity.
They said that officers found a male victim with serious, but non-life threatening injuries and that a vehicle was seen fleeing the area.
Police say the two suspects, a male and a female, fled the area.
In a follow-up post on X, they said that officers have located the suspects’ vehicle, which was involved in a single-vehicle collision.
One of the suspects was arrested, while the other ran away.
A firearm has also been recovered, they said.
No further suspect description is available at this time.
There is currently an increased police presence in the area.
Sherbourne is closed between Dundas and Gerrard streets and police are asking drivers to use alternate routes.
