Toronto police have released an image of what they’re calling a “vehicle of interest” in connection with three shootings at apartment buildings in the same area of East York over the past week.
Just after 2:30 a.m. on Wednesday, officers were called to a highrise an Thorncliffe Park Drive near Overlea Boulevard for reports of gunshots heard in the area. When police arrived, they found the glass of the building’s lobby shattered.
It’s the second time in a week that police were called to the same area to investigate shootings. On Sunday, shots were fired at two other nearby apartment buildings on Thorncliffe Park near Overlea.
No injuries were reported in either incidents but police office said a vehicle was seen driving away.
“Investigators believe the same vehicle was used in all three incidents,” police said in a release. “It is described as a black 2016 to 2020 Honda Civic with tinted windows and no front licence plate. The rear licence plate is unknown.”
Police don’t have a suspect description at this point.
