I guess all that other stuff, like toddlers getting shot has just become old hat..."Toronto police say a man in his 20s has serious but non-life-threatening injuries following a shooting on Jane Street, near Driftwood Avenue and Grandravine Drive."**********
UPDATE: Obviously Adam Vaughn failed math
A man has been shot dead in the middle of a residential street in Etobicoke early Thursday morning. The unidentified man, who is believed to be in his 20s, was shot several times in the head and upper torso at around 4 a.m. on Meadowbank Road, near Burnhamthorpe Road and Highway 427.**********
Toronto police say so far this year, there have been 16 gun-related deaths, up 7.1 per cent from this time last year.
The number of shooting victims has jumped to 163 from 119 last year.
UPDATE2: All in the family
The man found shot to death in Etobicoke on Thursday morning was a cousin of one of the men killed in last month’s Eaton Centre shooting and was affiliated with the same Regent Park street gang, police sources say.
Abdulle Elmi, 25, was shot multiple times in the torso.
Saeed Fahia, a leader in the city’s Somali community, said he remembered Mr. Elmi fondly, as a “very level-headed” young man who was kind to his mother.
