Man seriously injured in early morning shooting, police say.
Canadian rap star Drake’s mega-mansion is at the centre of an investigation into a shooting that left a man badly injured, a police source told CBC Toronto.
The entrance to the sprawling property on Park Lane Circle was taped off by officers early Tuesday and there was a heavy police presence in the area throughout the morning.
The shooting happened around 2:10 a.m. ET, Toronto police said in a brief post on X, formerly Twitter. The general location provided by police was the nearby corner of Bayview and Lawrence avenues.
A man was seriously injured in the gunfire, according to police. He was taken to hospital after officers arrived at the scene.
A suspect fled in a vehicle, police said. No descriptions of either the suspect or the vehicle were immediately provided.
Images of the rapper’s palatial 50,000-square-foot home in the ritzy Bridle Path neighbourhood are frequently shared online, often by Drake himself.
