FOG BLOG CANADA LOG: 1 DEAD , 2 INJURED IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO SHOOTING:

Shooting in downtown Toronto leaves 1 dead, 2 others injured.....TORONTO -- Toronto police are searching for four suspects who they said opened fire on three men in Regent Park Saturday evening, leaving one of them dead and the other two injured.

Officers were called to the area of Oak and Sumach streets, south of Gerrard Street East, just before 9 p.m. for a shooting.

When they arrived, they located three men, all in their 20s, suffering from gunshot wounds.

Insp. Michael Williams said one victim was pronounced at the scene while another victim who was shot in the torso was rushed to a trauma centre in life-threatening condition.

He said a third victim suffered gunshot wounds to his lower body and was also transported to a local hospital in non-life-threatening condition.

The homicide unit has been called and will take over the investigation.

"What I can tell you so far is it appears that four people dressed in dark clothing approached on foot, and all four of them apparently opened fire on these three men," Williams said.

He noted that approximately 50 shell casings were found at the scene.

When asked if the victims returned fire, Williams said it's still early in the investigation to determine that.

"I can't speculate at this point if there was an exchange of gunfire," he said.
