"Definitely a national security incident": Police investigating after shots fired at US consulate

Toronto police and RCMP are investigating after a shooting outside the U.S. consulate in the city’s downtown core, calling it a national security incident. Police said its officers responded to a call for a shooting at the consulate at 5:29 a.m. Deputy Chief Frank Barredo from the Toronto Police Service said that police received reports of a discharge of firearms that "may have taken place as early as 4:29 in the morning." Officers found evidence of a "firearm discharge, shell casings, as well as damage to the building," adding that no one was injured. Barredo said there was evidence a white Honda CR-V was seen travelling westbound on Dundas Street then turned south onto University Avenue before stopping in front of the consulate. He added that two individuals emerged from the vehicle, discharged a handgun at the front of the building and then got back into their vehicle and drove southbound. "It's definitely a national security incident because we had the U.S. consulate after all struck by gunfire. Whether it's a terrorist event or not, that'll be subject to the investigation that will be undertaken in the coming days and weeks," said RCMP Chief Superintendent Chris Leather.
