Police said a bullet travelled through the male victim's left leg, breaking his femur, and continued into his right leg.

The 29-year-old was taken to Bluewater Health and then airlifted to London Health Sciences Centre where he is undergoing treatment.

Police said five people were initially taken into custody for firearms related offences, but four have since been released.
