A shooting occurred at the U.S. Consulate in Toronto, Canada, prompting police to launch an investigation. Local police defined it as a "national security incident" and are currently investigating.
Toronto police responded at about 5:29 a.m. on the 10th (local time) to a report that someone had fired shots at the U.S. Consulate in downtown Toronto. According to police, the suspects circled the consulate in a car, got out and fired multiple rounds at the building, then fled by car. Toronto police said people were inside the building at the time, but because security was strict and the structure was designed to be robust, there were no casualties.
The incident came amid a string of shootings targeting Jewish synagogues in the Toronto area. On the night of the 2nd, about 10 shots were fired at a synagogue building in North York in the north. On the night of the 6th, shootings also occurred at two synagogues in Toronto. Some suggest that, following the shootings aimed at synagogues and now an attack on the U.S. Consulate, these incidents may be fallout from the Middle East war.
