Two men have been rushed to hospital after being shot in Brampton Saturday evening, Peel police say.
Emergency crews were called to the area of George and Queen Streets in Brampton around 6:30 p.m.
Officers located a man in his 20s suffering gun shot wounds and he was sent to a trauma centre with non-life threatening injuries.
Another male victim was located at a local hospital with life-threatening injuries and has since been relocated to a trauma centre.
It’s believed that the shooting occurred at a local building in the area, which has since been secured, police said.
“In situations like this, information from the public is valuable to to get an independent view as to what may have taken place here tonight,” Duty Insp. Greg Janiss said.
Investigators said at this point, there is no indication that the two victims know each other.
Peel police are urging anyone with any information to contact them at the Criminal Investigation Bureau, 22 division or Peel Crime stoppers.
