A man is dead following a shooting incident in Brampton.
Peel police were called to Lockwood Road near Queen Street West and Chinguacousy Road around 3 p.m. on Saturday afternoon for reports a man was suffering from serious injuries.
When they arrived they found a 30-year-old man suffering from head trauma and despite life-saving efforts, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
“What was initially believed to be injuries sustained by stabbing has since been determined to be gunshot wounds,” said Cst. Tyler Bell.
Police say the victim does not appear to live in the area.
“Right now we have varying reports of what led up to the incident so we don’t know if the suspects were on foot or in a vehicle,” said Bell.
Investigators say it does not appear that this incident is connected to a shooting earlier in the day in the north end of Brampton.
