He was without vital signs and died after being transported to hospital. The man's age has not been confirmed, nor has the cause of his injuries.

Const. Sarah Patten said, per CP24, that "due to the significant amount of blood at the scene ... we believe this to be a homicide at this point."

The Toronto Homicide and Missing Persons Bureau is on scene and the investigation is ongoing.

This happened just hours after a shooting on Toronto's Woodbine Beach Thursday morning.
