OTTAWA (Reuters) -A security guard was seriously wounded in a shooting at Canadian rapper Drake's Toronto mansion early on Tuesday, police said, without confirming whether the five-time Grammy award winner was at home during the incident.

Police said the shooting happened around 2 a.m. (0600 GMT) and officers responding to the incident found a man with a gunshot wound who was taken to a hospital. A suspected shooter was spotted and the individual fled in a vehicle.

Speaking to reporters in front of Drake's home in Toronto's lavish Bridle Path neighborhood, often dubbed "Millionaires Row," Inspector Paul Krawczyk said the investigation was at an early stage and information was very limited.

Police had not yet established a motive behind the shooting and details of the shooter or the vehicle were not yet available, Krawczyk said.

The wounded man, a security guard who was standing outside the mansion gates, was still in the hospital in serious condition, he said. Krawczyk could not confirm whether Drake was at home at the time of the incident but said police were in contact with his team, which was cooperating.

I remember when Canada was a clean country, unpolluted by filth.

When was that? French Canadians have always lived there.

LOL !

Rap apes in Bridle Path, along with the Russian Gangsters, Chinese Triads etc.

In Canada, even the elites have been replaced by immigrants.

I saw a video of a rapper; I believe in Brazil. He was on stage rapping about shooting someone in the gut. Someone in the audience shot him in the gut, killing him.

Rapper culture is a creation of marketers who mourned the demise of the “counterculture” which vanished when the hippies put on suits and became stockbrokers. The counterculture was a readymade market for whatever represented the counterculture to them. Thus, was born horrible “black” music. No melody. No talent. Anti-culture lyrics. They created something horrible because it’s a lot easier than creating something good.

Nothing looks or sounds more ridiculous than a white teenager tunelessly repeating, “I kill ‘da ho,’ I do, I do, I do.”

That was back when Canada was still 99% white. In other words a long time ago.

There must be some mistake, rappers are never involved such violence.

I remember this.

From the "Greatest Generation" to the Boomers just like that.

Yes I remember when Canada was very homogeneous and had one of the lowest crime rates in the world.
They actually had a law back in the 1800s that banned non-whites from living in the country.
