On March 7, 2025, 12 people were wounded in a shooting at the Piper Arms Pub, a local pub in the Scarborough district of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Three masked gunmen carried out the attacks during the pub's opening night just after 10:30 p.m. EST.[1]
Toronto Police superintendent Paul McIntyre said two gunmen had handguns, and one had a semi-automatic sporting rifle.[2]
During the opening night of the Piper Arms Pub on the evening of March 7, 2025,[3] three masked gunmen entered the pub with an AK-47 style carbine and handguns, while they "opened fire indiscriminately on the people sitting inside." The shooting was reported at 10:39 pm EST.[4][5] The suspects then entered a vehicle and drove away.[1]
Victims
The shooting left 12 people injured. 9 victims were struck by gunfire, including an off-duty TTC bus driver, who was shot six times in the legs and groin,[6] while three were injured by other means including by flying glass.[7][8] No injuries have been reported to be life threatening, but some were described as "life-altering".[9]
