A mass shooting occurred on Danforth Avenue in the Greektown neighbourhood of Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the night of July 22, 2018.

[7] Around 10:00 p.m. EDT on July 22, 2018, Faisal Hussain walked along Toronto's busy Danforth Avenue in the Greektown area of the city, randomly shooting pedestrians before opening fire on crowded restaurants.

"[13] TPS officers responded to calls from witnesses and located the gunman on Bowden Street and initiated a shootout with the suspect.

[12] At the corner of Danforth and Logan avenues, police cordoned off an area from bystanders and detonated an unidentified package for undisclosed reasons.

[4] On July 23, police executed a search warrant at Hussain's residence in the Thorncliffe Park neighbourhood of the city.

[31] Amarnath Amarasingam of the London-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue doubted Amaq's claim and said it may have been prompted by the CBS News article.

He also recently developed an interest in incel ideology and police found a copy of Elliot Rodger's manifesto in Hussain's phone and electronic equipment.

[36] Residents and business owners in the area started a crowdfunding campaign for funeral expenses of victims who died.

[37] Meanwhile, the Canadian Blood Services said that they were closely monitoring response efforts and were encouraging donations in the aftermath of the shooting.

[39] Ontario premier Doug Ford described the attack as "the most brazen shooting" of a year full of gun violence.

[42] Calvary Church, located near the site of the shooting, held a prayer vigil, joined by a congregation from the nearby Madinah Mosque.

[44][45] Several sports teams and athletes showed their support on social media with the #TorontoStrong hashtag, which was also used after the van attack in North York City Centre in April 2018.
