• TORONTO • City emergency crews were kept busy overnight with a string of violent calls that sent a number of people to hospital with serious injuries.Know how many shootings & stabbings there've been in the sleepy rural, cow-heavy neighbourhood where I've live for almost two decades?
Just after 6:30 p.m., police were called to a parking lot in Malvern, near Melford Rd. and Tapscott Rd. after a man was found shot. About an hour later, police were called to Westmount Ave. and Rogers Rd. after a woman was found with life-threatening stab wounds.
Just before 11 p.m., police were called to a strip mall parking lot at 2280 Islington Ave. at Rexdale Blvd. for reports of gunfire. Once there, crews found a male in his 20s suffering from numerous gunshot wounds.
Not a one, brah.
