Man shot to death in city's east end

A 22-year-old man was shot to death in the city's east end just before midnight Wednesday.

Toronto police say they were called to a highrise apartment at 1840 Victoria Park Ave., north of Lawrence Ave. E., and found a man suffering from gunshot wounds.

Const. Tony Vella said the man had been shot inside the building's underground parking garage.

The victim was rushed to Sunnybrook hospital, but was pronounced dead.

Police are searching for two suspects who fled the scene in a red van. One of the suspects is described as being a young black male, 5-8 to 5-11 with a medium build. He was last seen wearing a hooded top and was carrying a handgun.

The murder is listed as Toronto's 67th homicide of 2008.

Meanwhile, police in the city's Weston-area are also searching for suspects after a man was found shot in the abdomen outside a home on Lindy Lou Rd., south of Finch Ave. W.

Around 11:30 p.m., police were called after residents reported gunshots.

When police arrived, they found the victim, who was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police say they are having a tough time getting information on the suspect or suspects because the victim is not co-operating.
