Police are looking for a male suspect who reportedly shot at a Beck Taxi in the city’s Wilson Heights neighbourhood shortly after noon.

According to Const. Victor Kwong, the suspect opened fire on the taxi in the vicinity of Bathurst Street and York Downs Drive at around 12:15 p.m.

The driver of the taxi was not struck by gunfire but was injured by shattered glass, Kwong said.

Two passengers who were in the taxi at the time then fled the scene.

Paramedics say the driver was taken to hospital with very minor injuries.

The suspect was last seen fleeing the area in a Black Honda Civic southbound on Bathurst Street. Police have not released a description of the suspect.

“We just don’t have much details other than the fact that they were seen fleeing in a car,” Kwong told CP24. “The investigation is ongoing.”
