One man is dead following a shooting Saturday morning in Brampton.

Peel police say they were called to a home on Ivor Crescent in the area of Mississauga Road and Sandalwood Parkway just before 7:30 a.m. where they located a man inside a car suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.

The man was taken to a local hospital in life-threatening condition where he was pronounced dead.

CityNews spoke with neighbours who expressed their concern over what happened.

“My two uncles and my mom live here and we do have kids like play outside in the driveway,” Azhaan Ahmad said.

“Something like that at 7:30 a.m. … that’s like school time. Imagine if that happened on a Monday where all my kids were going out?”

Police did not have an immediate suspect description but added they believed this to be an isolated incident.
