A 16-year-old is recovering from injuries, and Toronto police are searching for as many as four suspects following a shooting in North York late Thursday night.

Investigators say they located a person suffering from gunshot wounds in the area of Sheppard Avenue West and Jane Street just before 11 p.m.

Police tell 680 News Radio Toronto the victim is 16 years old, and they’re now listed in stable condition with non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigators are looking for four male suspects, all around five-foot-10 and between 145 to 165 pounds. One of the suspects was last seen wearing a white vest.
