Large city, sprawled over a large area, and the incident was at a neighbourhood event confined in a small area. At least an hour's drive from where I live, certainly. Our local news described it as "a block party for the tiny Filipino community", but I don't know how accurate that description was. But thanks for your concern! An attack on strangers made the world news because of its rarity in Canada. The attacker was captured by members of the crowd when he attempted to flee on foot, and held for police by them.
