here is some more info

Hundreds of onlookers gasped in horror today as ambulances, police vehicles and police lines were set up near East 53rd Avenue and Fraser, where a corpse lay under a canvas as police interrogated many onlookers.

Nazreen Dean said two white men knocked on the door of her brother's house, asking for two men. Dean said it was simply a case of mistaken identity and the two white men got the house wrong, but shot at her brothers anyway.

"They were just watching a movie. Someone knocked on the door downstairs and they ignored it. Then they knocked on the upstairs and they answered and that's when everything went crazy," Dean said.

Dean said her 19-year-old brother, Aleem Mohammed, was shot, and another brother gave chase. He managed to wrest away a gun and shot one of the two men, whose body is under a white tarp at the corner of East 53rd and Fraser.

Dean said her brother Aleem is in hospital.

"He's stable," said Dean. "They're operating on him at VGH."

Amir, 18, is also still alive, she believes. It's unclear whose corpse lies on 53rd Avenue, just west of Fraser.

"I know these kids. They grew up with me. They're not into gangs. I think it's just the wrong house and wrong people. Maybe they were looking for the people downstairs — we don't know them," Dean said.

Police cordoned off a four-block stretch of Fraser Street, as shell-shocked onlookers talked amongst each other and tried to piece together how such a violent event happened in their neighbourhood.

Many of the onlookers are gathered at the Faith Chinese Baptist Church, which shares the premises at 6858 Fraser St. with the Ebenezer Baptist Church.
