After the death trip in the Canadian city of Vancouver, the 30-year-old driver was accused of eight times the second degree. Dozens of people were also seriously injured in the Crazy Act – the youngest fatality was only five years old.
Around 8 p.m. a black Audi SUV had broken a barrier at the Lapu Lapu festival and was raced in a crowd. Earlier, the Filipino-American rapper and founder of Black Eyed Peas, APL.D.AP, had just ended his concert, as the “New York Times” reported. His appearance was the most important act of the event organized by the Filipino community in Vancouver.
Further dead fears
Prime Minister Mark Carney said that the “Auto-Ramm attack” eleven people died that the fatalities were between five and 65 years old. Until now, not all victims could have been identified. Dozens of other people were injured, added the most important interim of the police of Vancouver, Steve Rai. Some of them so difficult, so there will probably be other fatalities.

Festival visitors prevented the suspect escaped
The 30-year-old attacker Kai-Ji Adam Lo tried to flee, but he was prevented from doing this by festival visitors. The suspect was accused of eight times the second degree murder. The authorities let further costs be expected.
The police do not accept a terrorist attack. Vancouver’s security concept must now be fundamentally checked. Among other things, “barriers, road safety and security controls” must be investigated, said Mayor Ken Sim on Sunday. “Our top priority is and will always be the protection of the residents of Vancouver.”
No proof of possible, specific risk
According to official information in the past, both the police and the mental health institutions in the city had to deal with the alleged perpetrator several times. In his opinion, the security concept for the street festival was reasonable, said Vice -police President Steve Rai. It was always a family -friendly event and this time there was no evidence that would have suggested. “We don’t want to block people in a cage at every event in Vancouver.”
A new parliament will be elected in Canada on Monday. Prime Minister Carney, who competes for the liberal party, wanted to come to Vancouver on Sunday evening (local time). The top candidate of the smaller new Democratic party, Jagmeet Singh, announced that he wanted to participate in a memorial event. According to his own statements, he had left the street festival only a few minutes before the bloody act.
