Toronto police said they were called to 7 Charles St. West, just one block south of Toronto’s busy Yonge and Bloor intersection, just after 6 a.m. for what they described as a drive-by shooting.
Duty Insp. Michelle Olszevski said officers arrived to find a man and a woman in their 20s suffering from gunshot wounds. They were taken to nearby trauma centers where they were in serious but non-life-threatening condition hours later.
Before the shooting, police got a call about stunt driving taking place on Yonge Street shortly before 6 a.m., Olszevski said.
“The vehicles and occupants of the vehicles involved in this stunt driving call were also in front of 7 Charles St. at the time of this shooting,” she said.
“There is a possibility that this incident has occurred as a result of a road rage.”
