Toronto police are searching for four suspects after two men were killed early Sunday following a shooting in the West Queen West area.
Police said they responded to a call at around 7 a.m. Sunday after two people were shot inside a 22nd-floor apartment unit on Lisgar Street, in the Queen Street West and Dovercourt Road area.
Both victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
“We have some indication there were several parties going on in the building last night but we do not know what connection the shooting might have to (those) parties,” Toronto homicide Det. Tam Bui told reporters.
In a news release on Sunday afternoon, police said they were looking for four persons of interest. All four were described as "dark-skinned men in their mid-twenties."
The statement described one of the men as East African, possibly Somali, who speaks with a "distinct southern American drawl."
Police said they are looking for two cars involved in the shooting. One vehicle is a silver compact car, which may have suffered damage as it fled the scene. The second vehicle is described as a brown compact.
Bui said a number of witnesses have been identified, and police are interested in speaking with anyone who may have information on the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-1400.
