Moviegoers watching Hindi movies in three Greater Toronto Area theatres were interrupted after masked men stormed into the cinema halls, spraying unknown substances inside the premises.
Several people were evacuated and later treated for getting exposed to an unknown substance.
One such incident happened around 9:20 pm Tuesday at a cinema complex in Vaughan, York Regional Police said in a statement on Wednesday.
People inside the movie halls began coughing after two masked men sprayed an “unknown, aerosol-based, irritating substance into the air” in a theatre, police said.
