York Regional Police are investigating after a man was killed in what they believe was a targeted shooting outside a home in Markham Thursday.

Officers were called to a residence on Cottsmore Crescent and Harvest Moon Drive, in the area of Steeles Avenue and Kennedy Road, at around 2:45 p.m. for reports of shots fired.
