Toronto police say a man was shot early Saturday during a house party in Etobicoke leaving him with serious injuries.
Police said they received a noise complaint just after 11:30 p.m. Friday for a house party happening in the Dundas and Islington area.
Police later arrived on scene and worked to disperse a crowd of about 50 to 100 people when gunshots rang out.
A police spokesperson said officers then located a young adult male with gunshot wounds to his lower body.
Paramedics rushed the victim to a trauma centre with life-threatening injuries shortly after 1 a.m.
Later Saturday morning, his condition was upgraded to non-life-threatening.
Police Chief Mark Saunders said on Twitter that two boys, a 16-year-old and a 17-year-old, were arrested after a foot pursuit and two firearms were allegedly recovered.
There is no word on what charges, if any, they are facing.
The victim’s identity and age have not yet been released.
