Before the attack on Tuesday, a fight broke out at the Muzik nightclub on Toronto's Exhibition Place during the early hours of the day.
Canadian security sources confirmed that the victims were a man and a woman in their 20s and 30s. Two injured men and a woman were rushed to a nearby hospital to receive treatment.
Police Superintendent Frank Bergen said the "sporadic" shooting began inside the club and spilled out into the street.
Meanwhile, Peter Sloly, the deputy chief of the Toronto Police Service, said an investigation has been launched.
"It's a large venue with a lot of outdoor space," said Sloly, adding, "Right now our focus is on the immediate investigation, the tragic loss of life and trying to calm the community down and get some sense of order in the neighborhood again."
