An OPP spokesperson told Global News officers were responding to a stolen vehicle call near Kennedy and Mayfield roads after 4:30 p.m.
A Peel Regional Police spokesperson told reporters there was an “interaction” between police and the suspect vehicle on Hollingsworth Circle, near Creditview Road and Wanless Drive, before shots were fired.

Two suspects reportedly took off after abandoning the vehicle.
An OPP helicopter was brought in to help find the two suspects, but they weren’t located as of Monday night.
