Death toll is at 9, with 16 injured, and they still won’t release the name of the man in custody, and you know what that means.
Update: Driver’s name is Alek Minassian. He is 25 years old. Minassian is traditionally an Armenian name.
Ahole mayor might have tipped off that this is a Muslim. How so?
He went on a stupid rant about how the world admires Toronto for how inclusive they are.
YEP. You even include savage murdering Muslims. How enlightened and open-minded, you moron.
9 Dead, 16 Injured When Rental Van Runs Into Pedestrians In Toronto, Canada
It is understandable that when a story just breaks the media could write “van hits pedestrians” in lieu of knowing if it was a man or a woman, but I’ve updated the headline to “driver of van.”
Authorities say the man jumped a curb and intentionally mowed over nearly a dozen people before fleeing the scene. He was apprehended nearby. They say they don’t know the motive.
Witnesses say he was going over 60 mph on the sidewalk.
The person above seems to be a person of interest at the scene where a white rental van was stopped on a sidewalk.
Here's the suspect confronting police near Yonge and Finch.
He's pointing something at the officer and claiming he has a gun in his pocket.

Listen to the accent of the man in the video above. “I’ve got gun in pocket.” Sounds middle-eastern to me, but I have a bad ear for accents.
(Is it wrong for me to think, right away, “Muslim”? Why wouldn’t I?)
2007W209 This is bizarre! The crime scene is over a mile long on one of Canada’s busiest streets. Injured pedestrian are hundreds of feet apart. Many injuries. Multiple fatalities.
#Toronto#canada
Relax people. CNN has just reported that it was a van, an evil van, that “collided” with people.
A van has collided with numerous pedestrians in Toronto, Canada, according to police. The extent of the injuries is not yet known.
Isn’t a van a high capacity assault vehicle?
Look where the van stopped. What’s that writing in the window?
If all guns were taken away, this would be the way maniacs would randomly murder.
Would this be considered a “mass mowing”?
Well, it IS Toronto, so it might have been a Chinaman.
Time for van control
It’s worse than we thought. It was a WHITE van. Shit.
“Is it wrong for me to think, right away, “Muslim”?…”
I’m already trying to guess which kind of Muslim…Somali? Saudi? Paki? Afghan? Uzbek? Algerian? British?
Will Canadian citizens wake up “if” it is a Muslim? I doubt it – they are sooo politically correct.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but white vans seems to be always the culprit.
#BanVans #BanWhiteVans
Editing after seeing BB’s comment.
The bottom of the hour news reported that “a van” did this and that “the van” did that. I just hate it when objects just start trying to murder people.
The report did mention that “the van” did get pulled over and the driver taken into custody. It could be the driver is Mr. Magoo who thought he was hitting the breaks when he was hitting the gas. Maybe. Or it could be a Mr. Mohamed who was hitting the gas in order to hit the infidels.. for the greater glory of his pagan death cult.
If it is the later, drown him in a lake of pig waist then wrap him in bacon. But seeing how this is the Leland of Trudeau, they will give the man hug therapy and 20 mill to start his own mosque.
Chevy makes some very tough vans in Canada, and the factory steel wheels are bulletproof. Very little front end damage here, nothing Trudeau couldn’t have fixed and back on the road in a week.
Boycott Ryder— 🙂 seems it’s always their trucks involved– just a thought or paint them black–brown with a camel on the side—then if you see one on the street—run away fast….
This guy ran over a mother pushing a stroller. Execute the animal on the spot and leave his body lay in a pool of blood.
Trudeau has expressed condolences. Now if it turns out to be a Muslim I wonder how Trudeau is going to make his condolences be non-commital..
I am watching the news now and they have been relating the same one minute of information for over half an hour.
Crap!
Hey, our other Canadian readers, please chime in and let us know you’re okay.
He’s not French, he would have just spoken French. Definitely an accent.
If he was restricted to a unicycle this tragedy would have never happened.
Thanks for asking. I am on the other side of the country.
You don’t need a van to hunt deer!
How many more things is the West going to ban before they admit it’s a jihad problem?
Is Camera Hogg on Twitter getting a ban started against Ryder Trucks?
Shep Smith doing his best to not call it what it is.
I’m not afraid of vans, just “military style semi-automatic” cars.

Who reads Arabic? Are the first two letters “N and A”? (left to right)
Clearly there were no Bollards. Bollards are racist against moving vans.
“#BREAKING Witness to truck ramming into pedestrians tells local Toronto TV station that the driver looked wide-eyed, angry and Middle Eastern.”
Say it ain’t so.
How many cylinders does a truck really need?
Canadian readers here, MJA!! We’re okay. 🙂 I dropped a sister-in-law off at that subway station last week. Waiting for our trust fund manchild (peoplechild?) Prime Minister to call it what it is. Not holding my breath.
Aloha Akbar, eh?
A van running amok with an assault rifle would have liberal heads exploding.
Finding a motive that doesn’t offend anyone will be tricky.
He might get 5-7 years in canda, eh?
“#BREAKING: At least 5 dead, 7 injured after van runs over people in Toronto; Eyewitnesses: He drove streight into the crowds, people begged him to stop”
That’s the ticket. Beg him to stop. How about 10 rounds of hard ball through the window. The lefts ability to cast blame on an inanimate object continues to get people killed.
All of Canada is a soft target. Just like Waffle House.
SILENCE!!! I will grille you.
MJA,
It says Money Exchange
Cellphone video looks like a white guy, possibly bald, 5’10 to 6′
9 dead now
“Eyewitness to the Toronto Terrorist attack identifies the killer as a ‘darker-skinned’ man of ‘middle eastern’ origin. If this makes you uncomfortable, then I suggest you talk to the victims of Nice, Berlin and Stockholm.”
No one needs a vehicle that big unless you are licensed to carry freight. Pure and simple!!
Trudeau’s viral tweet – sent out shortly after Donald Trump moved to ban travellers from several Muslim-majority countries last January – which read: “To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada.” Well, Justin, what are you gonna do now?
If you own a white van, do not post a picture of you and the van on Faceberg.
MJA, Thanks for asking. I live about 4 hours straight north, so I’m fine, except for the angst of living with clueless leaders.
So much for that smug anti gun / anti American snark from the Canucks
Gee Wally, why didn’t they throw rocks or cans of soup at him~~~~~~~~~
Trudeau is likely to make him the newest Canadian Millionaire!
Time for the media to break out its usual boilerplate “backlash feared” nonsense.
The leafs voted for this. RIP. We need a wall, north AND south.
He had an accent? Probably Irish. Dark Irish, from the West coast.
NEW: 25-year-old Alek Minassian identified as the suspected driver who ran down pedestrians in Toronto, killing at least 9, sources confirm to CBS News. https://cbsn.ws/2vEzXHN
@Hello Dolly – Justin will blame President Trump for creating a hostile, non-nurturing environment, creating unbearable angst in all peace loving people everywhere…
eternal cracker p- Thanks. I was just curious about it.
Ann Nonymous, RadioMatt and Graceia Glad you’re okay.
The Agenda of Diversity is more important than the lives of citizens. The Left is Godless and therefore has no problem equating Christianity with Islam or Kwanza. The van and the Muslim were tools , the murderer is the mayor and his fellow travelers who Love only themselves and their evil beliefs. More to die until we learn who is really behind the evil…
Did anyone get shots of his Twitter and Facebook pages before they were deleted?

Can you find the height?
He’d been checking out online the Isla Vista massacre in 2014.
But it’s mental illness.

The dopey mayor goes on TV and says how inclusive and welcoming the city is. Yeah, that’s a great comfort to the families of those murdered.
Whatever country they’re in, liberals bring death and destruction.
Someone should write a Muslim parody song……Allah, Take the Wheel.

Aloha Akbar? a Muslim terrorist working as a FA for Hawaiian Airlines? Please not that. No, no.
