Toronto police investigate a murder on Eastdale Avenue on Oct. 14, 2011.
A male in his late teens was shot to death Friday on Eastdale Avenue in East York, police confirmed with CityNews.
The teen was found in an apartment complex stairwell on the second floor at 90 Eastdale Ave., with a single gun shot wound to the chest.
Police believe he's 18 or 19 years old.
"We are very early in the investigation but I can tell you that we have identified the deceased and his family has been notified," said Det. Sgt. Gary Giroux.
The teen was pronounced dead at the scene. There's no word on suspects.
"It's not normal in this neighbourhood to happen, this type of violence, everyone knows each other, we're like a community here," said one area resident.
Police are canvassing the complex and looking over surveillance video.
