Last Thursday night, we were walking home at about midnight and ran into some friends we know. One was quite upset as she had just encountered a fight just down past the church on Queen Street West. A female was cut on the arm and bleeding. As she bleed she was being asked questions by the police. Seeing the blood, our friend suggested that she needed some medical assistance. Anyways, today we learned that this 21 year old girl has been charged with 2nd degree murder.

More of the story is that 2 men were asked for money on the street (which is almost as normal as breathing in the summer down here) by 4 'squeegy kids' or 'street tourists'. Then something ugly happened...obviously drugs were a factor. A fight ensued and a man who commuted to work here in Toronto from St. Catherine's was stabbed. He soon after died of his wounds.
