Toronto Jewish girls' school targeted by gunfire for 3rd time this year

For the third time since May, Toronto Police are investigating evidence of gunshots fired overnight at Bais Chaya, a Jewish girls’ school.

As in the previous shootings, no one was injured in the incident.

Police said they were notified of the shooting at around 2:30 a.m. on Friday. The department’s Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force is investigating, with support from the Hate Crime Unit.

The building sustained property damage, according to the Toronto Jewish federation’s Jewish Security Network, but students were ultimately able to attend school Friday.

Bais Chaya Mushka is part of a network of Chabad-Lubavitch schools. All three shootings at the school took place overnight, when the building was closed.
