One victim, a 21 year old Brampton man, was transported to hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The two other victims were treated for serious injuries and have since been released.

Police believe 18 to 20 males were involved and fled the scene of the shooting in dark-coloured clothing. No further description of the suspects has been released.
The name of the deceased male is not being released at this time out of respect for the family, police say.
Officers are continuing to canvas the neighbourhood and appeal for witnesses as part of the investigation, and are asking the other males involved to contact a lawyer and turn themselves in.
Witnesses and anyone with information are asked to call 905-453-3311, or contact Crime Stoppers anonymously.
