Less than six hours after a 37-year-old man was shot dead in Brampton, another shooting in the city on Family Day left a man with serious injuries.

Peel police say they responded to a call at Almond Street and Vanderpool Crescent, in the area of Highway 50 and Castlemore Road, just after 8 p.m. Monday, Feb. 19. It appears the victim, a 37-year-old Brampton man, was shot inside or near a vehicle parked outside a home.

Peel paramedics say the wounded man was transported to a Toronto trauma centre with serious injuries.

Heavily-armed tactical officers and police dogs searched for the gunman.
