Police are searching for suspects after three people were injured, one critically, in a shooting outside a hookah lounge in Woodbridge, Ont., early Monday morning.

York Regional Police responded to the scene around 2:42 a.m. at the Cameo Lounge located at 4120 Steeles Avenue West.

Emergency crews arrived and located three people in their 20s with gunshot wounds.

Police said two of the victims, a 26-year-old man and a 26-year-old woman, suffered serious injuries while a third victim, a 22-year-old man, was taken to hospital in life-threatening condition.

“We do believe there was over 150 people in the club at the time, so quite chaotic scene,” Const. Andy Pattenden said.

“It was multiple shots fired over quite a large scene with a lot of people around,” Pattenden said.

Police are urging anyone who was at the club during the shooting to come forward.

“We do believe there could have been people who left prior to speaking with our officers,” Pattenden said.

Investigators are also appealing to anyone driving in the area with dashcam video to contact police.

“We’ve had some good success recently in our investigations with people capturing suspect vehicle or people fleeing areas,” Pattenden explained.

There’s no word yet on any suspects and the investigation is ongoing.
