The shooting comes just hours after police say another man was severely injured in a stabbing in the 500 block of Flora Avenue Thursday night.
In that case, the 29-year-old victim was rushed to hospital in unstable condition, where he was later upgraded to stable condition. He remains in hospital.
There have been no arrests made in the stabbing either, and police have not linked the two attacks.
