Double stabbing at Canada's Wonderland leaves 1 dead, another in critical condition

[Master Mind]

From CTV news:

One man is dead and another in hospital with life-threatening injuries after a double stabbing in the parking lot of Canada's Wonderland in Vaughan, Ont., early Sunday.

York Regional Police say the stabbings occurred in the Wonderland parking lot shortly after midnight, as the amusement park's Halloween Haunt event wrapped up.

One man was pronounced dead on the scene and the other was rushed to hospital with life-threatening injuries, police said. He remained in serious condition in the afternoon.

Forensic investigators cordoned off a large section of the parking lot Sunday morning and remained on scene through the afternoon.

The amusement park north of Toronto remains open and has not cancelled its annual Halloween Haunt event, which runs from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. until Halloween.

Police have not released any information on possible suspects at this time.

Detectives are asking witnesses and any others injured in the stabbings to contact police immediately.

Too many incidents in Canada recently. RIP to the one man, and hope the other pulls through.

Were any of them soldiers? Stay strong, Ottawa!

I know the wait times in the lineups in Canada's Wonderland is crazy. But seriously what the hell is wrong with folks today?

Seems fitting given the Halloween Haunt theme.

Wife and I went to that event a few years back, lines were ridiculous for it being so late at night. (I think it was Leviathan's debut at the park or something)

Almost certain that it's a targeted event.

'Merica! ....nvm.....

Almost certain that it's a targeted event.

Just because it is so close to the other tragic events that occurred this week does not lend to any sort of connection or relation... Could be a totally isolated incident.. A drug related stabbing IMO..

Must mean Canada is under attack again.

thats it, time to bomb syria.

[Tortorella's Rant]

Who does Ottawa and Toronto think they are? Surrey?

[drummer4now]

I highly doubt any muslim was behind this attack... Probably an isolated incident.

We will probably be hearing more news about these sorts of crimes small or large, since the media seems to be on high alert now.

Are you going to leave the safety of your bedroom to do that?

Im guessing sarcasm with that post.

That's exactly what I meant by a targeted incident. I wasn't referring to it being a 'terrorist' attack nor was I making that connection.

Same world as ever. Just that this kind of news is regional at best but because of so many different news outlets are vying for a finite amount of breaking news this becomes a headline story.
