This comes as the force investigates a string of shootings on Sunday afternoon.

A shooting in the city’s west end saw a 15-year-old boy and 16-year-old boy sent to hospital with critical injuries around 2:45 p.m.

A little more than an hour later, officers were called to the area of Allen Road and Eglinton Avenue after a shooting left one man in critical condition.

A man was found without vital signs around 15 minutes later after another shooting in the area of Caledonia Road and Lawrence Avenue West.

The spate of Father’s Day shootings prompted a response from Mayor John Tory who called the violence “unacceptable” and “extremely disturbing.”
