A man is dead after a shooting in Toronto, police say.

Toronto police said the incident occurred at around 12:14 p.m. in the area of Shuter and Sherbourne streets.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday afternoon, Toronto police Insp. Peter Wehby said an unresponsive man was located in a car.

“Emergency measures were undertaken,” he said. “The male was found to be deceased shortly after.”

Wehby said police do not have suspect information.

According to Wehby, the shooting is not believed to have been random.

“We have nothing to show that it’s a random shooting, it’s believed that the suspects — at the very least — were acquaintances,” he said.
