Two 21-year-old women were shot while out walking in northwest Toronto late Monday night.
The victims suffered non-life-threatening injuries when an assailant fired shots from a car in the area of Islington and Vanhill Avenues north of Finch Avenue West.
Toronto police said they received a call about the shooting just before midnight.
Const. Victor Kwong, spokesperson for the police, said it is not known whether the car was stopped or moving.
The women fled to a parking lot near Islington Avenue and San Pietro Way, where they were located by police and then were taken to hospital.
Kwong said police have not released any suspect information. The victims described the car as small.
Investigators are looking for witnesses and searching for surveillance camera video.
