Police say they received a call about a man shot outside Woburn Collegiate Institute just before 3:30 p.m. Officers tried to save his life and the man was rushed to hospital, but he later died, they say. A short time later, a second man was admitted to a hospital, also suffering from gunshot wounds. He has since been taken to a trauma hospital, they say.
The victims are believed to be in their teens
Toronto Police Duty Insp. Lori Cranenburg said both victims are believed to be teenagers, but she could not confirm if either victim was a student at the school. Police are appealing for witnesses and anyone who may have a cell phone or video camera to contact them. Police say the shooter was last seen fleeing westbound from the area. He is described as a man wearing a black jacket and a “Covid mask”. The Toronto District School Board said Woburn Collegiate Institute and neighboring Woburn Junior Public School were both placed on lockdown, but the lockdowns have since been lifted.
