    Shooting in Toronto wounds 12 people

    TORONTO (AP) – A dozen people were injured in a shooting at a restaurant in eastern Toronto, Canadian police said.

    Police said they were called to reports of multiple people being shot near Progress Avenue and Corporate Drive at around 10pm.

    Toronto paramedics had said 11 adults suffered injuries ranging from minor to critical, but police later said 12 people were hurt, and that six people had non-life-threatening injuries but the extent of the remaining injuries was still unknown.

    Police also said a suspect wearing a black balaclava was seen fleeing in a silver car and was still at large.

    People were warned to stay away from the area.

    In an update yesterday, police said three men were suspected of the shooting and that all resources were being deployed to locate and arrest those responsible.

    Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow said she had spoken to police Chief Myron Demkiw and was told “all necessary resources” had been deployed.
