Man firing into Toronto cafes shoots 14 people, killing 2
By ROB GILLIES
Associated Press
TORONTO — A man
walked along a Toronto street
firing a handgun into restau-
rants and cafes, shooting 14
people and killing two before
dying after an exchange of
gunfire with police.
Police Chief Mark Saun-
ders did not rule out terrorism
as a motive, though officials
did not immediately identify
the attacker, other than to say
he was 29 years old.
Sunday night’s mass shoot-
ing, just three months after the
driver of a van plowed into
pedestrians on a Toronto side-
walk, killing 10 people, shook
the confidence of many in this
normally safe city.
“It’s almost inconceivable
that these things can happen,”
said Mayor John Tory. “We
were so used to living in a
city where these things didn’t
happen and as we saw them
going on in the world around
us (we) thought they couldn’t
happen here.”
Speaking later Monday at
a city council meeting, Tory
said, “This is an attack against
innocent families and our
entire city.”
Toronto police spokes-
man Meaghan Gray said early
Monday that a second victim
had died, though there were
no further details.
Saunders earlier said that
a young woman had died in
the shootings and that a girl
aged 8 or 9 was in critical
condition.
Dr. Najma Ahmed of St.
Michael’s hospital said her
hospital has five patients who
are in serious or critical con-
dition and said that three of
the five underwent immedi-
ate lifesaving operations. The
condition of the other vic-
tims at other hospitals was not
immediately known.
A video from one witness
shows a man dressed in black
clothes and a black hat walk-
ing quickly and firing three
shots from the sidewalk into
at least one shop or restau-
rant in Toronto’s Greektown,
a lively residential area with
crowded Greek restaurants
and cafes.
Witnesses heard many

shots and described the sus-
pect walking past restaurants
and cafes and patios on both
sides of the street and firing
into them.
John Tulloch said he and
his brother had just gotten
out of their car when he heard
about 20 to 30 gunshots.
“We just ran. We saw peo-
ple starting to run so we just
ran,” he said.
Tanya Wilson was closing
her tattoo shop on the street
when a mother and a son ran
into her store with gunshot
wounds to their legs
“They said they were
walking and a man told them
to get the hell out his way and
he just shot them,” Wilson
said.
Wilson said she tied and
elevated their wounds and
tried to keep them calm while
they waited for paramedics.
She locked the door and shut
off the lights, not knowing
what was happening outside.
Jody Steinhauer was cele-
brating her birthday with fam-
ily at Christina’s restaurant on
Danforth Avenue when they
heard 10 to 15 shots. They ran
to the back to the restaurant
and hid under a table.
“We heard a woman yell
help. My partner went outside
the restaurant and the woman
was right there. She had been
shot,” she said.
Her boyfriend and a doc-
tor who was in the restau-
rant attended to the woman
who was shot in the thigh.
“She was screaming and yell-
ing and in shock. Nobody was
with her. That was the scary
part,” she said.
An army of police, para-
medics and other first
responders descended on the
scene, while people, some in
their pajamas, emerged from
their homes to see what was
happening.
Toronto Councilor Paula
Fletcher said during the coun-
cil meeting that the attack
was “not gang related” and
said the gunman was shoot-
ing “indiscriminately” into
restaurants and into a park.
“I know we always say
that can’t happen here when
we see those gunmen in the
states doing the same thing
and it has happened here
now,” Fletcher said.
Mass shootings are rare in
Canada’s largest city.
This past weekend Toronto
police deployed dozens of
additional officers to deal
with a recent rise in gun vio-
lence in the city, which has
seen 23 gun homicides so far
this year, compared to 16 fatal
shootings in the first half of
2017.
“Why does anyone in this
city need to have a gun at
all?” Tory said.
Ontario Premier Doug
Ford said the confidence that
Toronto is a safe city has been
shaken.
Prime
Minister
Jus-
tin Trudeau tweeted that his
thoughts were with everyone
affected.
“The people of Toronto
are strong, resilient and brave
— and we’ll be there to sup-
port you through this difficult
time,” Trudeau tweeted.
In April, the driver of a
van plowed into pedestrians
on a Toronto sidewalk, kill-
ing 10 people and injuring 14.
Graffiti: Once they began, project took about an hour
Continued from Page 1A
They went to Home Depot
to buy cement paint, roller
brushes and paint cans. Dow
estimates they spent between
$60 and $70.
“Wasn’t too big of a deal
for a learning lesson,” Dow
said.
Once they began paint-
ing, the project took about an
hour.
“With this many peo-
ple, it didn’t take that long,”
Dow said.

The children enjoyed the
brief chore, Dow said. Another
young boy even joined in at
one point.
Dow and Bartlett are
Warrenton natives. Dow,
33, said they were happy
to offer other parents
peace of mind when they
take their kids to the park.
In a small community, it’s
important to help fellow res-
idents — even with small
deeds such as lending a bike
to a child in need of one, she
said.

is the town we live in,” Dow
