Peel Regional Police are investigating following a shooting on a Brampton Transit bus on Thursday, March 5, that left one male victim injured.

Const. Heather Cannon said a call was received at 6:29 p.m. about an incident in the area of Dixie Road and Howden Boulevard.

Peel Paramedics said a man in his 50s was taken to a Toronto trauma centre in serious but non-life-threatening condition. On Friday morning, March 6, Const. Sarah Patten said the victim is in stable condition.

Police are reporting one male suspect, who fled on foot. He is believed to be in his late teens or early 20s.

Late Thursday night, Brampton Transit said in a tweet that it is fully co-operating with police and that the "safety of our riders, employees and residents is our top priority."

Northbound Dixie Road was closed at Howden Boulevard and southbound Dixie was closed at Williams Parkway for several hours during the police investigation. The roadways have since been reopened.
