Police probe 3rd targeted shooting at Vaughan home; no arrests made

A string of shootings targets a Vaughan home for the third time in six weeks. Shauna Hunt reports details that police have released on the latest incident.

York Regional Police (YRP) say a Vaughan residence has now been the scene of three separate shootings in less than two months, after gunfire erupted early Monday morning at the same address.

Officers were called to Allison Ann Way around 5 a.m. following reports of gunfire. When they arrived, police found multiple shell casings scattered on the street and a damaged vehicle in a driveway.

Investigators believe the incident was targeted. Duty Officer Peter Cheung told reporters that a male suspect fired from inside a dark-coloured vehicle before fleeing the scene.

YRP confirmed with CityNews that this is the third shooting at the same residence. The previous incidents occurred on Sept. 7 and Sept. 24. In all three cases, no injuries were reported, and no arrests have been made.

Police say they were already in the area before the latest shooting took place, though investigators have not determined whether the incidents are connected to other recent gunfire in Vaughan. Authorities are also working to establish how many people may have been inside the suspect vehicle.

Residents can expect a heavy police presence in the neighbourhood as the investigation continues.

York Regional Police are urging anyone with information or surveillance footage to come forward.
