\n<\/p>\n
At least two people have been killed in a shooting at a street festival in Toronto. <\/p>\n
Police in the Canadian city initially received reports of an active shooter on St Clair Avenue at approximately 20:12 local time (01:12 BST), where a salsa festival was being held.<\/p>\n
Six victims with gunshot wounds were found by police, who said two people had been pronounced dead at the scene. <\/p>\n
Police said they had secured the scene, but urged the public to stay away from the area, where a large police presence would remain. <\/p>\n
They said the suspect, or suspects, had not yet been apprehended.<\/p>\n
Doug Ford, the Premier of Ontario, condemned the “senseless violence” at the salsa festival, which he confirmed had “claimed two lives and injured others”.<\/p>\n
“The person responsible must be caught, brought to justice and spend the rest of their life behind bars,” he wrote in a statement on X.<\/p>\n
He thanked first responders who attended the scene, adding his thoughts were with “the victims, their families and everyone affected”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
