The U.S. consulate in downtown Toronto was the target of gunfire early Tuesday morning, police say.

In a post on X, Toronto police said officers responded to reports that someone had shot at the building, located near Queen Street W. and University Avenue, around 5:30 a.m. When officers arrived on the scene, police said, they found evidence that a firearm had been discharged.

No one was reported injured, police said.

In a post just before 7 a.m., police said they did not have information on a suspect.

Officers are on the scene investigating and part of University Avenue is closed to traffic near the consulate. Anyone with more information is asked to contact police.
