The Daesh (also known as ISIL or ISIS) terrorist group has reportedly claimed responsibility for a deadly shooting in the Canadian city of Toronto.
Earlier, Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders said that the authorities did not know what led to Sunday night’s shooting, but he did not exclude terrorism as a motive, Sputnik reported.
A woman and a young girl were killed and 13 others injured in a shooting Sunday night in Toronto’s Greek town neighborhood. The person allegedly responsible for the attack died from a gunshot wound, but the authorities did not specify whether he was shot by the police.
The Canadian police identified him as 29-year-old Faisal Hussain. According to the AP news agency, Hussain's family said he suffered from serious mental problems, but they never expected him to become violent.
