BBC: Shots fired inside Canada parliament
Witnesses reported seeing a gunman firing at the Ottawa War Memorial and then running toward the government buildings, where more shots were heard.
A soldier has been wounded in the attack, Canadian media report.
The incident came hours after Canada raised its terror threat level following a fatal hit-and-run attack on two soldiers earlier in the week.
"Shots fired at War Memorial at 9:52am today; one person injured," Ottawa Police tweeted on Wednesday as a witness reported seeing authorities search from room to room for the suspect.

Some reports say 2 or 3 shooters involved. Has ISIS come to North America? I'm sure that is what some people are thinking at this moment.
UPDATE: Police are also investigating shootings at the nearby Rideau Centre shopping center.
