According to Toronto police, two suspects fired gunshots at a Jewish girls school early Saturday morning, causing damage to the building.

Investigators report that nobody was injured in the shooting, which happened shortly before 5:00 a.m. at Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary School.

Police say two suspects shot at the building from a dark-coloured vehicle, which was not on school property.

Officials say that they are investigating the possibility that the shooting was hate-motivated, but note that it’s too early to draw any conclusions.

However, on social media, Premier Doug Ford called the shooting a “gross display of antisemitism.”

Several Jewish groups in the city say the incident is an escalation of violence the community has faced since the onset of the latest Israel-Hamas war, which was sparked by the October 7, 2023 Hamas terror attacks on Israel, in which over 1,200 people were killed and over 250 people taken hostage.
