A man in his twenties is in life-threatening condition after a shooting in the city's west end, Toronto paramedics say. Toronto police subsequently announced that a second gunshot victim with minor injuries had been identified.

Paramedics were called to Islington Avenue and Finch Avenue West around 3:30 p.m. Sunday where they found the man suffering multiple gunshot wounds to the upper body, Deputy Commander Shawn Staff told CBC News.

Police say two men were seen fleeing the intersection of Goldsboro Road and Duncanwoods Drive in what may have been a white car.

One is described as a tall black man in his twenties with muscular build, wearing all black clothing. The second is described as black, 5'7" with a stocky build, wearing blue jeans.

The man has been transported to a local trauma hospital.
