Here's more from one of the to the police spokespeople as to why and where this investigation is and why they're saying that this is not a crime at this time. One of the questions that I'm sure people are asking is this is a hate crime. >> Is this a terrorist act? What I want to say, that's too early in the investigation to say whether it is or not. We're ignoring the obvious, you know, of what has occurred here and what the target the shooting was. >> But the same time, it would be wrong to to just guess at this point, we're going to win into this investigation with an open mind. And the investigation will tell us what occurred here. But that's why we have a hate crime involved in this investigation, because we're not ignoring the obvious. >> And without ignoring the obvious, even before going back to october, the 7th and the increase that we've seen in reported hate crimes towards several different communities, with almost a two-fold increase reported to police based on the last numbers, we got in march from the police chief, myron demkiw. Jewish community in toronto has been among the top 3 in terms of reported hate crimes towards a specific group going back years and looking now and what's going on today, there is questions, obviously in the 2 and a potential in some, a lot of people's minds, but this is another case of hate. Police are urging caution still at this time saying that the facts will lead their investigation. But at the same time, wanting to ensure that jewish communities here in toronto feel as safe as they can. And that's whether going to be increasing once again. Police presence in several neighbourhoods that have a larger jewish community to help try to instill that sense of safety as incidents like this, which again, it is not a reported hate crime, at least at this time. But do not sin still even more fear. Send it back inside. >> Ok, andrew brennan live with an update from north york. Thank you.
