Somebody didn’t get the memo

Didn’t we ban guns in Toronto? Surely these people heard about David Miller’s ban on guns!

At least six gunshots were fired into a ground-floor apartment in the city’s west end early this morning.

An 11-year-old boy, a 24-year-old man and a 35-year-old woman were inside the unit at 3735 Dundas St. W., near Scarlett Rd., around 1 a.m. when the shots were fired, Toronto police Staff Sgt. Mark Tilley said.

Someone from the unit frantically called police and once they arrived, no suspects were found, but bullet holes were found inside the apartment.

No one was injured.

“This is still fresh and it’s being actively investigated by our detective office,” he said.

Police are still investigating a similar case that occurred May 25.

An unknown number of suspects stood outside a townhouse complex and fired into three homes on Orpington Cr., near Finch Ave. and Albion Rd.

No one was hurt in that case either.

Wow, these guys couldn’t hit water if they fell out of a boat! If only they had some place to practice…

  1. A young five foot farm woman I know in northern albera who lives alone, …was happy to have her gun loaded when her farm was approached by several drunk aggressive men…she didn’t have to shoot but would have if they hadn’t left…they put their knives away and moved on…and even when the rcmp came to take the report they couldn’t go after the known subjects…
    The poor old lady in the next farm wasn’t home thank goodness, but…they stole everything they could get their hands on, including gifts she had wrapped…oh, and broke her windows and water pipes before leaving…basically leaving her home uninhabitable in the cold winter months…
    Like most farmers this young woman is happy to have her guns and regularly has to use it to chase off theives.. But I realize that there are many people who think she should stand and be robbed raped and killed…while waiting hours in the country for help to come..
