Toronto police officers are investigating reports of an assault on a cab driver early Sunday morning that left two people injured and recovering in hospital.

Officials say they responded to the incident shortly after 5:00 a.m. and took three suspects into custody.

It remains unclear as to what happened, but the vehicle involved appears to have a smashed windshield on the passenger side.

Among those injured is a cab driver in his 40s, police say, as he was taken to the hospital with “non-life-threatening” injuries shortly after they arrived on scene.

One of the suspects, a man in his 30s, was also transported to the hospital along with an unknown woman who police say was transported due to “alcohol intoxication.”

A moderate police presence remains on scene as officials continue to investigate.
