Police are searching for suspects following a fatal double shooting at a plaza in Mississauga that left one man dead.
Emergency crews were called to an industrial plaza near Dixie Road and The Queensway around 2:45 a.m. Thursday for reports of a shooting.
Paramedics say two male victims were found at the scene a short distance apart. One man was pronounced dead and the other was rushed to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
No suspect information has been made available.
Peel police Const. Nikhil Chakravarthy says investigators believe there were other people in the area at the time of the incident who may have information.
Some tenants of the plaza tell CityNews they believe there is some sort of after hours business operating in the area. Chakravarthy says it is too early to tell if the shooting was connected to a specific business.
Investigators believe the shooting was an isolated incident and say there is no risk to public safety.
The homicide unit has taken over the investigation.
