Two separate shootings rang out in Toronto Monday evening.
The first incident happened when a woman was shot while inside her west-end home.
Police say the bullet came from outside the woman's Cameron Ave. residence, near the Keele St. and Eglinton Ave. W. area, and struck her in the hand around 9 p.m. Monday.
At this point, police don't know if it was a stray bullet or if the victim was being targeted.
Police were canvassing the area for witnesses.
Half an hour later in Brampton, a man was shot in the back
Police say the 25-year-old man was shot and then managed to stagger into a pizza shop in the Chinguacousy and Bovaird Rds. area just half hour after the first shooting incident.
He was later taken to a Brampton hospital before being transferred to a trauma centre in Toronto, where he is suffering serious injuries.
Police are now looking to the public's help in catching the suspect.
Anyone with information in these two separate shootings are asked to contact Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477).
