Toronto police are investigating after two males were shot at an apartment building in Toronto's Eglinton West neighbourhood and two others walked into a North York hospital suffering from gunshot wounds.

Police first responded to a reported shooting at a building located at 2480 Eglinton Avenue West, near Keele Street, shortly after 8 p.m.

One victim was located at the scene while another was found nearby on Venn Crescent.

Both victims were shot in the leg, according to investigators, and paramedics say the males were taken to a trauma centre with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Paramedics say a third person was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Witnesses told CP24 that there was a baby shower going on inside the building when gunfire erupted.

Two suspects, described by police as black males wearing all black clothing, were seen leaving the area on foot.

About 25 minutes after police were called to the Eglinton Avenue shooting scene, two males arrived at a North York hospital suffering from non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

Police have not confirmed if the two incidents are linked but say no other gun calls were reported in that time period.

"All I can explain right now is that numerous rounds were fired and people have been injured," Det. Scott Bradbury told reporters at the scene.

"Right now, what would really help us is for people to call in because information is what's needed and by people giving us that information, it will help us solve this crime and prevent future incidents."
