TORONTO, Ont. – A 19-year-old man died in hospital early Friday after a shooting in the parking lot of a Toronto night club.
Naveed Shahnawaz of Brampton died in hospital after being shot during a fight Sunday around 3 a.m. in the parking lot of the Muzik night club at Exhibition Place. A 23-year-old man was also shot.
Three Toronto men were charged Monday in connection with the shooting.

Jonathan Lau, 19, faces three charges including dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.
Hoan Nguyen, 26, has been charged with one count of assault.

The police watchdog said officers responding to gunshots outside the club fired at a Honda Accord leaving the area. The car came to a stop in a snowbank a short distance away.
A 19-year-old man in the vehicle was hit in the chest and the arm and an 18-year-old was shot in the arm. Both were transported to hospital.
Police did not state whether the three suspects were the same men wounded in the vehicle.
The SIU investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.

what the hell is a nightclub? Fancy word city folk use for bar I presume.
@Brampton – Cause they’re all stuck with the “I’m a tough guy” attitude, when really if you were to get them by themselves without their “group” or “guns” they would be complete wimps… Get them one on one without the weapons and see who is still standing… They take the easy way out, guns require less work !! They should be arrested and their hands amputated so they can no longer pose a threat to anyone… sounds extreme but… obviously our current techniques aren’t working at all…So we can either change it, or just sit back and let the rest of our youth and others be targets. Time to grow some stones and learn from middle eastern countries, get caught there and ur stoned or hung. Case closed.
Just want to ask a stupid question,Why are people going to a club with a gun,better yet why the gun?I don’t understand,you go out to a club on the weekend and carry a gun, duh
