Toronto police shot and killed a man who was walking down a street carrying a gun in a city neighborhood on Thursday afternoon, an incident that prompted five nearby schools to be placed under precautionary lockdowns, city officials said.

Officers responding to a report of an armed man in the area fired after the gunman confronted them, Toronto Police Chief James Ramer said at a media briefing.Earlier on Twitter, Toronto police said officers had fired and the suspect, described as a male in his late teens or early 20s, was injured.

All the school lockdowns were lifted after a couple hours, according to the Toronto District School Board. “I certainly understand the trauma and how traumatic this must have been for staff, students and parents, given the recent events that have happened in the United States,” Ramer said.

Awesome job👏👏👏 That's why their firearm homicide rate is 0.5/100000! Who knows, maybe in another lifetime we as South Africans can dream of such statistics! Anything is possible if you believe in flying pigs and unicorns...😅🦄🙃
