Toronto police announce 2nd arrest in birthday party shooting.....Shooting injured 4 people, including 5-year-old girl still in critical condition......Toronto police have announced a second arrest in connection with a shooting at a child's birthday party on the weekend that injured four people.

One of the injured, a five-year-old girl, remains in critical condition.

Two boys, aged one and 11, were also hurt in the gunfire, but both have been released from hospital. One of the two alleged shooters, whose arrest was announced on Monday, was injured as well.

James Ramer, interim police chief, told reporters on Tuesday that police have arrested Kevin George, 21, of Toronto. He faces four counts of aggravated assault, seven firearm-related charges and one count of failure to comply with recognizance.

Ramer said police have determined that two men at the outdoor party got into an argument and began shooting at each other.

"Our officers are still looking for other people that were involved in the shooting, either as shooters or accessories after the fact. If you were involved in this incident, I suggest that you find a lawyer and turn yourself in," Ramer said.

"We're working very hard to identify everybody who was involved at that party and we will be arresting all of you."
