A week ago it was a similar incident in the equally upscale Harbourfront district
Police are looking for up to four suspects after a shooting on Toronto's Harbourfront.
The shooting took place at around 12:15 a.m. as a large crowd was coming off the Northern Spirit cruise ship that had just finished sailing around the harbour.
When patios are nothing more the an invitation for gunmen to participate in caged killings, Money can’t buy happiness and apparently safety either, yuppies be warned I’m headed west for the fresh air and an ocean view.
