CP24 is reporting that "A “complex” investigation is underway into a shooting at a popular Latin street festival in Toronto that left two men dead and at least four others seriously injured on Saturday night. Thousands of people, including families, children and seniors, were enjoying the first night of this year’s Salsa on St. Clair when gunshots rang out shortly after 8 pm."
"Deputy Chief Frank Barredo said there was an “exchange of gunfire” between individuals targeting each other near St. Clair Avenue West and Arlington Avenue, sending festival attendees running in all directions away from the scene. Dozens of police officers, along with paramedics, descended on the festival and found several people suffering from gunshot wounds. Barredo said one man was pronounced dead at the scene while another died later in the hospital. Their identities have not been released. Four others were also taken to the hospital with serious injuries, Barredo said."
Two people were exchanging gunfire. That's not a mass shooting that's a fight that got out of hand.
