Police are looking for multiple suspects after a shooting in Toronto on Tuesday evening left one man dead and five others injured.Police officers across Toronto were dispatched to a shooting on Tuesday night in the city’s northwest end which left one person dead and five injured. Police responded to a call at 8:37 p.m. in Lawrence Heights, where they say three suspects approached a cluster of people, shot into the group and then fled the area, in what they called an act of “brazen violence.” One man, 31, was pronounced dead in the hospital in Toronto’s 13th homicide of this year.
On May 4, 1977, Toronto punk rock pioneers the Viletones played the Colonial Underground, a basement club on Yonge Street.
