"Several pedestrians have been hit by a van in Toronto, say police in the Canadian city.
The collision occurred at a busy intersection, and up to 10 people may have been struck, say officials.
The van fled the scene after the incident, at the intersection of Yonge Street and Finch Avenue, police say.
The incident happened at 13:30 local time (17:30 GMT) on Monday. Police have asked the public to avoid the area. Nearby subway services were halted.
Pictures apparently taken at the scene show police armed with rifles and paramedics treating injured people.
One orange bag, which appears to contain a body, is seen being loaded on to an ambulance.
The vehicle was located several blocks away, and the driver was taken into custody alive, according to local media.
No description was given of the driver, including name, age, gender, or possible motive.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters: "Obviously we're just learning of the situation in Toronto.
"Our hearts go out to anyone affected. We're obviously going to have more to learn and more to say in the coming hours."
