Toronto police are investigating after magic mushroom dispensaries across the city were hit in eight separate incidents over three nights.

According to police, firearms were discharged at the dispensaries in seven of the cases.

In one incident, a vehicle was driven through the front of the dispensary, police told CP24. Nobody was inside that dispensary at the time.

The latest incident occurred at a dispensary in the Little Italy area overnight.

Toronto police said they were called to a dispensary at College Street and Dovercourt Road around 4:30 a.m. Friday after shots were heard in the area.

Officers responded and found multiple shell casings at the scene, as well as bullet holes in the building.

Multiple shell casings were also found after police responded to another dispensary in Etobicoke, near The Queensway and Islington Avenue, at around 10:15 p.m. Thursday night.

No injuries have been reported in any of the incidents.

Police say Centralized Shooting Response Teams from the Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force are “actively investigating” the incidents.

Police are urging anyone with information to contact investigators.
