Police are searching for two masked suspects after a brazen shooting inside a downtown Toronto restaurant.

A man and a woman – both customers – were taken to hospital with serious injuries after the incident at Michael’s On Simcoe.

The shooting, which police say appears to be targeted, happened just before 10 p.m. on Sunday, in the area of Simcoe and Adelaide streets.

“I probably heard about five shots. Then I heard commotion, screaming, yelling…then I knew something was going on,” said the restaurant’s owner, Michael Dabic

“They were in and they were out so they knew who to look for and where they were.”

Dabic said most of the customers had already left for the evening, and fortunately, no one else was injured.

But the shooting has rattled his staff.

“It’s devastating,” he said. “You see people crying, your staff is distraught…The gentleman who was shot he was sitting upright, he had blood all over him.”

Dabic said he’s thankful he gave his wife, son and daughter the night off.

The restaurant will remain closed for the police investigation.
