Toronto police investigating 2 separate east-end shootings, no injuries reported
Toronto police are investigating two separate east-end shootings that occurred within 12 hours of each other.
Officers were called to the area of Danforth and Carlaw avenues just after 5 a.m. Sunday for a report of the sound of gunshots. Police said they located evidence of gunfire at the scene.
Danforth Avenue is closed between Carlaw and Logan avenues as police investigate.
Hours earlier, near Broadview Avenue and Queen Street East, police responded to reports of gunshots in the area. There, officers discovered evidence of gunfire on Munroe Street and a residential window was found shattered.
No injuries were reported in either case, police said.
In an email to CTV News Toronto, police said they don’t have any information to suggest the two incidents are connected.
“This will be determined through the course of the investigations,” a spokesperson said.
Investigators are asking anyone with information to contact police at 416-808-5500.
