Cedarbrae Collegiate Institute is on lockdown after gunshots were heard at the rear of the school on Wednesday afternoon.
Police say no victims were found at the high school in Scarborough, but they have located several shell casings and bullet holes were found in a car.
Several other schools in the area were on lockdown as a result as well: Cornell Junior Public School, Willow Park Junior Public School, Cedarbrook Public School, Tecumseh Senior Public School, Scarborough Village Public School, Cedar Drive Junior Public School, and Golf Road Junior Public School. The lockdown on those schools has since been lifted.
Officers are looking for male suspect, 18 to 20 years old, approximately five foot 10 inches to six feet tall with a slim build. He was described as wearing a black winter toque and a red sweatshirt.
A staging area is being set up for parents at Cedarbrae library Parking Lot at 545 Markham Road.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
