TORONTO — A 35-year-old man is believed to have used a crossbow to kill two men and a woman on Thursday in the garage of an east Toronto bungalow, leaving them crying out in agony as they bled out onto a driveway.
One of the three victims managed to make a 911 call to alert police just before 1 p.m., but all were dead by the time the first officers arrived, according to Detective Sergeant Mike Carbone.
The suspect, who was also seriously injured, was taken into custody but has not yet been charged or named. The victims’ identities are also being withheld until their families are notified, but they are reported to be all related.
A little more than an hour after the killings, a separate criminal investigation was unfolding 20 kilometres away, downtown on the city’s waterfront. In response to an alert about a possible bomb threat, police dispatched members of the chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear team to a condominium building, and closed the surrounding street. Children at a daycare in the building were ordered to shelter in place until the threat was cleared around 5 p.m.
