## Arrests Made in US Consulate Shooting

Toronto police have apprehended two teenagers in connection with a shooting at the US consulate on July 27. This incident marks the second attack on the consulate this year. The suspects, aged 19 and 15, face multiple charges, including an attack on internationally protected premises.

## Details of the Incident

The July shooting, which did not result in any injuries, was classified as a national security concern. It followed an earlier incident on March 10, which led to increased security measures for US and Israeli diplomatic sites across Canada.

## Police Investigation

Authorities believe the teenagers were "criminals for hire," recruited through encrypted messaging platforms. This arrest follows the detention of two other individuals, aged 18 and 19, in June, who were also linked to the March shooting. Police have not disclosed further details about the recruitment or the motives behind these attacks.
