Toronto police say a security guard working outside the Bridle Path neighbourhood home of rap superstar Drake was seriously injured in a shooting early Tuesday morning.
Insp. Paul Krawczyk told reporters the shooting happened at around 2 a.m. outside of the gates of the Park Lane Circle home, which is near Bayview and Lawrence avenues.
“That person was working, apparently, as a security guard at the residence,” Krawczyk said.
“He was standing outside of the gates in front of the residence when the shooting occurred.”
Krawczyk said he could not confirm if Drake was home at the time of the incident. He did note police are in contact “with his team” and that they are “cooperating” with investigators.
The security guard was taken to hospital in serious condition, Krawczyk said.
Police have collected some video evidence which captured the shooting, Krawczyk said, but noted he would not release any further details on suspects or a vehicle description because of “video quality issues.”
“As we have information and we’re able to analyze the video better, then we’ll be able to provide more information,” Krawczyk said.
