Toronto police are appealing for witnesses and information as they deploy a “significant amount of resources” into the investigation of the fatal shooting of a 16-year-old boy in Scarborough on Saturday afternoon.
The incident happened in the parking lot of Glendower Plaza in the L'Amoreaux neighbourhood, near Birchmount Road and Glendower Circuit, south of Finch Avenue East.
A teenage boy subsequently turned up at the hospital with gunshot wounds and in life-threatening condition. He died there a short time later, TPS said in a follow-up post on X. Akeson did say that he believes that the shooting was targeted, although he couldn’t say with complete certainty that the victim was the intended target.
