strathroy

Strathroy is a small town, approximately 225km from Toronto, and the RCMP presence there yesterday, had the small community shaken.  At around 4pm, kids riding their bikes saw military armed and garbed RCMP racing onto their street, and shortly after that, they heard a few large bangs and several shots fired.  In the end terror suspect Aaron Driver was apparently killed by police after he detonated one device, but before he was able to detonate the second one.  There is a strong indication that Driver, was planning a terror attack in Toronto.  TTC and Go Transit were warned of a planned attack, but were given no other specifics.  The full story HERE.

RCMP will hold a press conference with more details at 1pm from Ottawa.
