Shots fired at US Consulate in Toronto, Canada
USA TODAY
Police in Canada said they are searching for two male suspects who were involved in a shooting at the U.S. Consulate in Toronto.
Police in Toronto, Canada, are investigating after shots were fired at the U.S. Consulate building early the morning of March 10 in what authorities are calling a "national security incident."
The shooting unfolded at about 4:30 a.m. on March 10, and it was about an hour later that a police officer was flagged down to respond, Toronto Police Service Deputy Chief Frank Barredo said in a news conference. When police responded, they found evidence of a shooting including shell casings and damage to the outside of the building.
There were people inside the consulate at the time of the shooting, but nobody was injured because of its "highly secured, highly fortified" construction, Barredo said. There was damage to the glass and door of the building, Toronto Police Service said in a statement.
According to a witness account, a white Honda CR-V pulled up outside the consulate and two males exited, fired a handgun at the building, got back into the car and left the scene, Barredo said. Anyone with information about the suspects or relevant dash camera footage is asked to contact Toronto police.
"We appreciate and understand the concern, how unsettling this is, how disturbing it is and how angry it may make some citizens," Barredo said.
