There is a heavy police presence at a Midtown apartment building this morning after a Toronto police officer was shot in the area on Wednesday night.
Three suspects are in custody in connection with the incident, which occurred near Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue at around 5:30 p.m.
Police said the suspect who they believe shot the officer is one of the three suspects taken into custody on Wednesday night. An officer at the scene also discharged a firearm during the incident but investigators confirmed that no one was struck. The Special Investigations Unit has invoked its mandate and will be investigating that component of the incident. It is not clear whether the officer who was shot was the one who fired the weapon.
“We saw a young man sitting over here against the wall in handcuffs… My daughter was just coming home from work from Yonge and Eglinton. She heard all of the fire alarms and the police and when she came home, she saw the boy actually being cuffed. And he was quite young,” she said.Box cutter-wielding suspect arrested following cigarette robbery in Oshawa: policeWoman, three young children in hospital after being struck by vehicle in EtobicokeWith the U.S.
