Nobody was hurt, and police said they had no suspect description.Police did not identify the target of the gunfire, but INKAS Armoured Vehicle Manufacturing confirmed it was the company that was shot at. “Earlier this morning, our Toronto headquarters was struck by gunfire in a serious incident that caused damage to the facility,” chief security officer Andy Ellis said in a statement Tuesday. No employees, visitors or members of the public were injured, he wrote, and the building remains operational.

The area near the U.S. Consulate downtown came under fire the following day, the second time in four months.“The incident is being investigated by the Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force,” Toronto police media relations manager Nadine Ramadan said in an email. “Any connections to other incidents will form part of the investigation. We have no further information to share.”The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs said in a post on X that the gunfire targeted the manufacturer, which it said provides crucial technology to protect Ukrainians.
