One of the videos shared with CTV News Toronto is from the cellphone of a man who works in the area, whose identity is being protected due to safety concerns.
The video shows a struggle between three men. One person is seen in the footage hitting the other on the head with a firearm before gunfire erupts.
“I hear four shots ring out and the one guy that was getting beat with the gun originally, which I didn’t know had a gun, I witnessed him with a gun in his hand and he was coming right at me. That’s when I turn away," he said.
