Three people were killed in an attack involving a crossbow in Toronto’s east end on Thursday and police took a person into custody.
Police responding to a call about a stabbing found three people who appeared to have been injured by a crossbow bolt, said spokesman David Hopkinson.
All were pronounced dead.
“We don’t have any idea with regards to why this may have happened,” said Hopkinson.
CTV News, citing emergency services, said two other people were seriously injured.
Television footage showed police tape surrounding part of a residential street in Scarborough, a suburban area east of the city’s downtown area.
