Two men sought after shooting that critically injured 12-year-old boy arrested.

Two men sought in a brazen daylight shooting where a 12-year-old boy was critically injured while walking down the street with his mother were taken into custody outside a downtown Toronto Canadian Tire store on Monday evening,. Interim Toronto Police Chief Jim Ramer said that after a “painstaking, labour intensive investigation,” gun and gang unit officers confronted two men as they exited the Canadian Tire near Bay and Dundas streets on Monday at about 5 p.m.

Both suspects surrendered immediately and officers allegedly located three loaded guns. The arrests stem from a shooting on Nov. 7 that injured four people and terrified numerous residents of a North York neighbourhood.

Emergency crews were called to an apartment building in the area of Jane Street and Stong Court, just north of Finch Avenue West, around 2:20 p.m. after multiple calls about shots being fired in the area.

Ramer said two vehicles attended the parking lot of the building. Occupants of one of the cars got out and ran at the occupants of the other, firing multiple rounds at them. When officers arrived, they located a 12-year-old who was struck by a bullet while he was walking with his mother on the west side of Jane Street, Ramer said.
