Man critically injured in shooting with 2 Toronto police officers during traffic stop

Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) say a man has life-threatening injuries after two Toronto police officers fired their guns during a traffic stop on Sunday night.

The SIU said the stop was near Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue West at around 11 p.m. after a Toronto police officer stopped a car in relation to a Highway Traffic Act infraction.

Police stopped the vehicle — a Lexus — because it was missing a license plate at the front, according to the SIU. After officers stopped the vehicle, there was an interaction and two officers discharged their guns.
