No injuries reported but security boosted at US and Israeli diplomatic buildings in Toronto and Ottawa
Two men fired multiple shots at the US consulate in Toronto early on Tuesday in what police described as a “national security incident”, prompting beefed-up protection for US and Israeli diplomatic buildings in the city.
The individuals approached the consulate in downtown Toronto at about 4.30am ET, exited a white SUV and fired several rounds from a handgun at the consulate, Frank Barredo, Toronto’s police deputy chief, told reporters.
