Women taken hostage in Toronto, at Union Station - Happening right now!!
 

Some fucker took some women hostage and has a gun held against her head right at Union Station.


I think this is honestly the first time i can ever recall such a senseless hostage taking...i wonder what the story is.


Someone run out and snap some pics

Shit...Toronto's getting more messed up each year

This is all I could find in the news

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servl...BNStory/Front/

God damn... This started a few streets away, where another woman was shot in the head and is now enroute to the hosiptal...


This is very fucked up shit.....Did you see my thread last week about all the crap that happened?

Think I saw it...lots of shit happening in TO...one of the guys that got killed a few weeks ago was a friend of a lot of my friends.

Sorry to hear that, i wonder if it was one of the stabbings which happened...either way its still some fucked up shit...I wonder what happened to the good old days of "fist only" fights

Ya it's fucked up...I never knew the guy personally, or even met him, but a few of my friends had their RIP messages in their MSN names...

One of my friend also knows one of the guys that got into a fight with Ja Rule a few weeks back too lol

The women which was taken hostage got out of the deal without being hurt. They think the hostage taker was shot.

The women who was shot before this began has head trama but was still awake/alive when she arived at the hosiptal..

Doesnt look like anyone died, yet

Oh he's dead alright! KABANG!

This thread need pics for sure !

dayum..i hope he sticks his head out soon..as im sure there are about 5 snipers just waiting for an inch of his dome to appear

ah good news hes already dead

It's a good thing your paying attention there Captian Obvious LOL ;)

i did one of those skip to the end of the thread replies...lol

Did you? Captian Obvious again!! LOL ;) just kidding Brad!! :)

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Feeling a little frisky this morning are we? :)

Just a smidge!!! HAHA!!

Toronto is becoming more and more like New York :1orglaugh

New York is well New York - a city that cant be compared... it was alot tougher until recently when you could expect to get mugged in the big apple.

Toronto, oddly enough is still one of the safer cities and most definitely compared to the Toronto of the 70's

blame the imigrants, Alberta is building a giant electric fence around itself.

And you see the humour in this how?

And this is so far from the truth it's not even funny, prolly something similar to your nic.... Exaggeration ;)

Wow that was pretty crazy, good thing the cops took care of that fucker!

I used to believe in "Oh well, shit happens" but with the frequency of the shit happening that theory is starting to go out the window

Looks like a sniper took that guy out.
Anyone happen to notice how crime around here increased since that whole gun control program crap?

I agree, although i am glad the SIU is investigating...from what the news was saying he started to walk away from the girl when the sniper planted one in him...

Having his brains blown out all over union station isnt exactly the best way to take someone down...

Wow, tragic all 'round. Thank God the cops took him out.

I can see Union Station from my place. This is crazy.

Here is the story and video

damn.

holy smokes!! that's just right around the corner from my office!!!:ak47:

ah...i think that it should be known that if you fuck up enough to get the swat teams off their asses to come down and get you...that they are shooting to kill.


i

woman - one female
women - more than one female

which is it?

sounds pretty effective to me

Glad my mom came home from T.O. last night! Scary!

you should look at the video, he wasn't walking away from anyone

And that's why you canadians are getting more and more violent people walk all over you.

Trust us Americans. Our country is rampant with this shit because we let it happen. They need to make an example of this fucker right now to discourage more of this shit later.

I say rip a nice calibre bullet right thru his fuckin head and let him die right there and put it on all the news stations. Let EVERYONE see you can't fuck around like that and I guarantee you it'll be the last time anyone tries it again.

Of course if memory of my Toronto experience serves me correctly, you will arrest him and then apologize to him.

The Fark.com headline for this was good:

Gunman shot in downtown Toronto hostage-taking. Reported as "agitated." Apparently not "shiny happy" like most other gunmen

Wow that is sad.I thought Canada is one of the safes cities.:warning

city?

I hear they have indoor plumbing now :winkwink:

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh I had to laugh at the last sentence..so true but not in this case!!

They ripped his brains all over the sidewalk!! Hopefully it does become a deterrent. :ak47:

last i heard the first woman is ok.. it ends up she got pistol whiped... then second woman is ok as well cause they ended the stand off buy putting a 50 cal slug through the guys eyeball


Still some fucked up shit. I bet the guyu was all fucked up off drugs and wasent talking so the cops had to put on in him

well at least it ended up in a happy ending...hostage walked away,and suspect killed..justice served.

heres the video

By the way, where is Toronto? Is that near the igloos?

:glugglug

Shortly after 8 a.m. today (Wednesday, August 25, 2004), a 45-year-old woman from Toronto was approaching the food court area at 66-100 Wellington St, via the escalator, on her way to work. She got to the bottom, where she was approached by her estranged husband.

He fired shots in her direction but did not hit her. She started to run away but she tripped and fell over. He approached her and started assaulting her.

He then walked away from her and left the building. Police were notified via 911 and officers were given the man?s description.

The woman is in St Michael?s Hospital, being kept for observation. She has a small number of stitches to the head.

It almost looks like a pellet gun because of the colour on it but that could just be the sun reflecting
