Do you recognize this car?
It’s one of two cars Toronto Police believe were involved in a brazen shootout in an east end neighbourhood on Friday.
And investigators are asking the public for help in identifying the vehicle.
Police say officers responded to Walpole Ave., near Greenwood Ave. and Gerrard St. E., after gunshots rang out around 2:20 a.m.
A number of people in two parked cars were shot at by a man on foot; they returned fire and pursued the man as he ran off, Const. Allyson Douglas-Cook said in a statement released Saturday.
An occupant of one of the cars was shot in the head and suffered other gunshot wounds. Following surgery, he’s still fighting for his life in hospital.
The exchange of gunfire left several other cars in the vicinity riddled with bullet holes and one or two nearby houses with holes in their windows. Shell casings were found all over the scene.
Locals reported hearing as many as 15 to 30 shots.
Police have now released a security camera image of a red Nissan Altima believed to be one of the two vehicles involved.
Anyone with any information regarding the car or its whereabouts is asked to call police at 416-808-5500 or Crime Stoppers anonymously, at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
