Gunman Hits U.S. Consulate in Toronto Again, Damaging Facade in 2nd Shooting This Year

Summary
A single shell casing was recovered after Monday's shooting at the U.S. Consulate in Toronto, where gunfire struck the building's facade but caused no injuries.
Toronto police said the suspect fled, triggering a high-speed chase that lasted about an hour; no arrest has been made and the search remains active.
The consulate said it remains open and operating normally, though some routine U.S. citizen services in Toronto are being rescheduled.
Police have not ruled out links to recent shootings at two Jewish-owned bakeries or to multilayered gun-for-hire networks they said may also be tied to the March 10 consulate attack.
That earlier consulate shooting led to charges last month against two teenagers, underscoring a broader surge in targeted gun violence that Ontario Premier Doug Ford called disgusting.
