Cops now believe he'd been lying there for hours before a passerby stumbled onto his lifeless body.And it's not like we're talking about a single problem area.
But beyond figuring out who killed him and why, they have an equally perplexing question: how did a man known to hang out almost exclusively in the downtown core wind up in a place he likely never even knew about?
Homicide detectives are investigating the possible murder of a man found on the front lawn of a house in the city’s east-end this morning.And there's a lot of problems that have nothing to do with guns at all.
The man, who has not been identified, was found with severe injuries to his body when police arrived at the scene on Bon Echo Court, Scarborough about 7 a.m.

WELCOME, YET AGAIN, READERS OF CANADIAN CYNIC
Apparently, the Cynic is a big believer in politically correct censorship. If it doesn't fit his lofty, lefty, compassionate world view... it is verboten.
He's not disputing that any of these events happened... you just aren't allowed to acknowledge them.
Or Canadian Cynic et al... will fix your wagon.

Is 17 people travelling to Quebec City on the city's dime the kind of services Torontonians are in need of? Mayor David Miller never mentioned this junket when he was ramming through his new tax reforms last year.*
And here we were thinking the City of Toronto was dirt poor -- you know, we must help bail these turkeys out.
Turns out, during an era where there was fear of not making budget, the city fathers miraculously found $41,854 to cover expenses for 17 people to go to beautiful old Quebec.
C'est bon.
