Gunshots were heard at an apartment building in the area of Kingston Road and Lawrence Avenue early Sunday afternoon.
Officers arrived and searched the building and found a man suffering from gunshot wounds in a stairwell.
The man succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
