According to local media, the Toronto police responded to a report of a shooting outside the station on Glen Road at around 5 pm. After reaching the spot, officers found a man with a gunshot wound. “We last spoke to Kartik on Thursday and he told us he was heading to work. He was a student but worked part time at a Mexican restaurant. For several hours, his phone was switched off. His cousin, who he stayed with, grew worried and informed police. News flashed that a shooting had taken place and it was then she realised Kartik is no more,” The Indian Express quoted Kartik’s father Jitesh Vasudeva as saying. Kartik was pursuing global management from Seneca University and was in his first year. He shifted to Canada in January and was staying in an apartment along with his cousin.
