Five men injured in drive-by shooting after midnight prayers in Scarborough

Five men were injured early Saturday morning when someone opened fire on a group of men who had just finished midnight prayers in Scarborough, Toronto police say. The victims range in age from 28 to 35 years.

Acting staff supt. David Rydzik says that around 1 a.m., a group of individuals celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan gathered in a parking lot to discuss where to eat.

Rydzik says the group was “randomly attacked” in a drive-by shooting, adding that there’s no information to suggest that the victims are involved in any type of criminality.
