A man died after a shooting in Toronto’s Greektown early Sunday morning, just hours after a memorial marking the fifth anniversary of a mass shooting in the same neighbourhood.

Gunshots rang out near Danforth and Carlaw avenues at around 3:30 a.m., city police said, and the man who was shot died in hospital a short time later.
