A shooting at an OVO Fest afterparty kills two, wounds at least three.

An otherwise very successful OVO Fest was capped off by tragedy last night, as an afterparty at Toronto's Muzik nightclub was interrupted by gunshots that wound up claiming two lives and injuring at least three others. The Associated Press reports that the shooting began inside the club "and then spilled onto the streets outside." Going down inside the club was the official OVO Fest afterparty, and although Drake was scheduled to appear there, it's currently unclear whether he was inside when the shooting began. 

Police on the scene identified the two casualties as a man and a woman in their 20s or 30s, and said that three others were hospitalized for their injuries. They believe "there could be more victims at other locations" as well.
