Toronto police say two victims who were shot near a north Toronto bus stop last weekend were hit “indiscriminately” while going about their day.
At a news conference Tuesday, Det. Sgt. Phillip Campbell said 39-year-old Adu Boakye was walking by a bus shelter near Jane Street and Driftwood Avenue when he was fatally shot Saturday afternoon.
Boakye was “innocently going about his business,” Campbell said, as was the 16-year-old boy who was shot in the same area and sent to hospital with life-threatening injuries almost 24 hours prior.
“We believe these two victims were shot indiscriminately,” said Campbell, adding neither victim has any affiliation with gang-related activity.
