A double shooting in the Entertainment District shortly after midnight Wednesday resulted in the city’s 95th homicide victim of the year.
Toronto Police say the man was walking with a group of people on King St. W., west of Spadina Ave., around 12:10 a.m. when he was approached by the shooter.
The man was hit multiple times by bullets. He was taken to hospital, where he died.
A woman who was walking in the area was hit in the leg. Her injuries are not life-threatening.
The shooter fled in what police believe was a blue Mazda.
King was closed from Spadina to Portland for the investigation with TTC streetcars rerouting. The stretch reopened to traffic just before 8 a.m.
The ages and identities of the victims were not immediately released.
Anyone with information is asked to call investigators at 416-808-7400 or Crime Stoppers.
