No Gentle Giants here

TORONTO - A man is dead following a shooting Monday in the city's west end.
But that's not all... apparently the knives are out as well.
Toronto Police responded to the bar near Danforth Ave. and Dawes Rd. shortly after 5 p.m. and found the two victims suffering from apparent stab wounds.

It’s believed the pair were attacked by as many as six assailants.

The killing is one of two murders that occurred in Toronto — the city’s 31st and 32nd homicides of the year.
Attacked by a knife-wielding gang... that's some city you've got there.

Abdul Monir, 31, was gunned down after midnight as he finished his shift at Halal Pizza Time near Markham Road and Lawrence Avenue, where he had begun working a few weeks ago. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Rahim Dorani, the shop’s owner, was also shot and underwent surgery Sunday. “He’s doing better right now,” said his son, Hekmat Dorani.

The hits just keep on coming.
