Paul Macintyre, a superintendent with the Toronto Police Organized Crime Unit, called the shooting a "brazen and reckless act" at a press briefing Friday night.

"I am deeply troubled to hear reports of a shooting at a pub in Scarborough," Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow said in a statement on social media early Saturday. "I have spoken to Chief Demkiw and he has assured me all necessary resources have been deployed. This is an early and ongoing investigation - police will provide further details. My thoughts are with the victims and their families."
