Family releases statement following violent Bridle Path home invasion

Police say the suspects are armed and dangerous as three family members recover in hospital after the early-morning attack.

  • On Thursday, three masked intruders forced their way into the Bridle Path home of MAC Group CEO David Morton, shooting him and his two adult daughters while attacking other family members with a hammer.
  • Toronto police launched an urgent manhunt for three suspects estimated to be about 20 years old, who fled the scene in a dark-coloured SUV and are considered "armed and dangerous."
  • A violent "altercation" began when the masked men demanded personal valuables, Toronto police said, with two family members sustaining "life-altering injuries" during the struggle.
  • David Morton described the "terrifying and life-threatening experience" in an emailed statement 36 hours later, expressing deep concern about increasing violence linked to home invasions in Toronto.
  • Investigators are analyzing surveillance footage from the home, though Toronto Police Inspector Kristy Smith stated there is "no information at this point to suspect that this particular home" was specifically targeted.
