Man seriously injured in early morning shooting, police say.
A shooting outside rapper Drake’s Toronto mansion left one man seriously injured.
The incident unfolded in the upscale neighborhood of Bridle Path shortly after 2am, as a man was rushed to hospital after being found in the street badly injured.
The artist was not believed to be home at the time of the shooting.
A suspect fled in a vehicle, and reports indicate they are still at large.
The area around Drake’s mansion, purchased by the star in 2015 for a reported $6.7 million, was restricted by a police perimeter amid the ongoing investigation.
The victim’s injuries have been described by officials as serious, but non-life threatening.
Around an hour earlier, a man was shot dead and a woman was injured in another shooting in Oakwood Village, around nine miles away. It is unclear if the two shootings are related.
The location of the shooting at Drake’s Toronto mansion comes amid his ongoing feud with rival rapper Kendrick Lamar, who used the same mansion to taunt Drake this week.
As the two men have released ‘diss tracks’ against each other the last few weeks, Lamar shared the cover for his track ‘Not Like Us’, featuring Drake’s mansion covered in markers for a sex offender app.
There is no evidence at this time to suggest that the rapper’s viral feud is related to the shooting.
