Horrific Attack in Toronto Today

Post by kittykins »

Whoosh, the news has been sad lately. As most of you will already know, Toronto has had a horrible attack when a van drove onto the sidewalk and killed 10 people and injured 15 others. It's horribly tragic. :( No report yet what motivated it. HORRIBLE!

Here's a composite of bystander's videos that show the take down by the one officer. Oh my goodness, did he ever do a good job of that arrest!! That was textbook! At the end bystanders congratulate him and he shakes their hands. I hope he gets some kind of award. I would NOT want to be his wife! He was so calm and professional...wow.
