Four people have been injured after a shooting in Mississauga, Ont., on Canada Day, police say.
Officers with the Peel Regional Police were called to a commercial plaza on Queensway East in Mississauga around 6:30 p.m. on Saturday. They arrived to find several people suffering gunshot wounds.
Three men suffering from gunshot wounds were taken to a trauma centre, one victim had life-threatening injuries, while the other two were stable.
A fourth victim made his own way to a local hospital with gunshot wounds, and police say he is listed in stable condition.

Police said the four were at different hospitals around the Greater Toronto Area and remain in serious condition.
A suspect allegedly fled the scene in a stolen 2020 White Ram 1500 pickup truck that was later abandoned in Caledon. The license plate for the vehicle was BD85909.
Police believe the shooting was targeted, and said the victims were not co-operative with police and one person’s hospital escort left without providing a statement.
Police said they still don’t know how many suspects may have been involved or have descriptions of who they’re looking for. They are appealing for anyone with information to contact the Peel’s criminal investigations bureau or to make an anonymous tip by calling Crime Stoppers.
