Two people were killed and several others injured after at least two shooters exchanged gunfire amid crowds of roughly 13,000 people at Canada’s biggest Latin street festival in Toronto on Saturday, police said.
A total of six people were shot, and several suspects are believed to be at large after the shooting at the Salsa on St. Clair festival, Toronto Police Service Deputy Chief Frank Barredo said at a news conference late Saturday.
Both of the deceased victims were men, Barredo said, while the four injured victims were taken to hospitals with “serious injuries.” Investigators have cordoned off three crime scenes and recovered two firearms, but there is no ongoing threat to the public, he added.
“This seemed to be an exchange of gunfire between two individuals targeting each other,” Barredo said, adding the shooting “indiscriminately put vast numbers of people in danger.”
