Pravica said he is in serious but non-life-threatening condition.

“When this happened, it was still dark,” he said.

“We’re relying right now on a video canvas and following up with some of those witnesses who either heard and or saw potentially some of the interaction.”

No suspect information was provided.

At 5:23 a.m., police reported a man was brought to a hospital in 31 Division, which is in North York. He was suffering from gunshot wounds and later died.

Police did not offer any other information.

Both investigations are ongoing.
