Police are urging the 16-year-old student of a Scarborough high school who fired a shot at a van Thursday to get a lawyer and surrender.Not to nitpick, my friend... kinda sounds like he had a bit of a "ballistic altercation" as well... but, hey... carry on...
"This young man was identified as going outside and what we heard…a young man had a verbal altercation with people he had no inkling or history with before," Principal Bill Papaconstaninou said.
The victims all attend the school, "all great students, and athletes as well, engaged in school. This young man (the suspect) isn't as engaged as we would like him to be."Except, of course... that it's not... and are you shittin' me?
Papaconstaninou described the incident as isolated and said the school is safe.
