The SIU said officers were dispatched to investigate a reported break-and-enter and vehicle theft in North York on Aug. 9, 2023.

Preliminary information suggested the stolen vehicle, as well as other stolen vehicles, were tracked to a plaza on Underhill Dr. near Lawrence Ave. E. and Don Valley Pkwy.

The SIU said two of the vehicles, including the vehicle initially reported as stolen, left the scene.

The agency said there was an interaction with a man in one of the remaining vehicles at the plaza and an officer discharged his firearm at the vehicle.

No one was injured as a result of the firearm being discharged, the agency said.
