The 40-year-old victim has since been upgraded to critical but stable condition.

Investigators now say the two parties didn’t know each other prior to the shooting, which happened after the two suspects and the victim got into an argument.

Police responded to the area of Arlington Street and Notre Dame Avenue at approximately 12:30 a.m. Sunday for a report a man had been shot.

The victim was rushed to hospital while the two suspects were arrested nearby, the force says.

A 20-year-old man is facing 11 firearm and assault-related offences, but police say his name is not being released yet since the investigation is ongoing.

A 15-year-old male is also charged with three firearm and assault-offences.
