Police have charged a 17-year-old Toronto boy following a shootout that happened in the Jane and Finch area on Thursday morning.
Police allege a 17-year-old boy was walking near Driftwood Avenue just before 10 a.m. when a male got out of a car and started shooting at him.
The 17-year-old boy shot back and the male in the car left.
The 17-year-old was struck and has non-life threatening injuries.
Police found the loaded gun, a Bersa S.A. .380 handgun.
The boy is underage so he can’t be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
The charges are discharge firearm with intent to endanger life, possess loaded firearm, possess prohibited firearm not holding a licence, possess firearm obtained by crime and possess weapon dangerous to public peace.
Police said on Thursday that they were looking for a red suspect vehicle, possibly a Honda Civic. Witnesses said they saw the car going north on Jane after the shooting.
