One person was seriously injured in a shooting in Mississauga

Peel Regional Police are investigating after a 40-year-old man was shot in Mississauga on Saturday.

Officers were called to a market on Eglinton Avenue East near Dixie Road around 12:30 a.m. to reports of gunshots.

When they arrived, they found a man suffering from gunshot wounds. He was taken to hospital in serious but non-life threatening condition.

No suspect description was available.

“We have various reports of people fleeing on foot and in vehicles, but it’s too early at this point to determine whether or not they are suspects or individuals fleeing gunfire,” said Cst. Tyler Bell.

Investigators say the shooting appears targeted in nature, but it’s too early to say if the victim was the intended target.
