The Toronto Police Service (TPS) is investigating after one man was shot and killed in the Greenhills neighbourhood on Monday night.
Officers were called to a low-rise apartment building at 85 Clearview Heights in the Trethewey Drive and Black Creek Drive area just after 8 p.m. for reports of shots fired.
A victim in his 20s was located at the scene with gunshot wounds and was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, where he was pronounced dead.
TPS did not identify the victim as investigators await the notification of the next of kin.
Residents tell 680News Radio they heard two or three gunshots and then saw the victim run out of the building and collapse on the ground in the rear parking lot. Good Samaritans performed CPR on the victim before paramedics arrived at the scene.
The Homicide Unit has taken over the investigation.
Duty Inspector Scott Shutt said they currently have no suspect or vehicle descriptions.
“Our officers are currently on scene speaking with witnesses and viewing surveillance videos,” Schutt said Monday night.
