2 men died after shooting each othe

2014 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A "chance meeting" between two men on Danforth Avenue last month ended in them gunning each other down, Toronto police said today.

On March 14, just before 9 p.m. ET, police who responded to reports of gunshots found two men on the sidewalk outside the Mediterranean Social Club at 2215 Danforth Ave., east of Woodbine.

Both men had gunshot wounds and later died in hospital.

Police identified the victims, both from Toronto, as:

Jonathan Stefan Khan, 21. Shawn Chestnut-Reddick, 22. At a news conference Wednesday, police said both men knew each other, had a "pre-existing conflict," and met by chance on the night of the shooting. There was a "physical altercation," and both men drew their weapons and then fatally shot each other.

Definitely Toss: No Self-Selection
Thanks, Lorne, but there's self-selection here since each man ended up shooting the other. If only one of them had a gun it would have been a pretty clear cut case of murder.
