A 13-year-old boy was arrested in Pickering for the fatal stabbing of an elderly woman, prompting concerns about senseless violence in the usually safe city. Mayor Kevin Ashe noted that the boy was recognizable due to his long black trench coat, leading to a swift identification. The attack, characterized by police as 'sadistic and cowardly,' occurred outside the woman’s home. Following an emergency alert about the suspect, public facilities were closed until the boy was taken into custody, with charges pending as investigators continue to analyze the incident.
The randomness of this act, the senseless violence that occurred on our usually safe city streets is very troublesome." Ashe said.
The suspect stabbed the woman 'in a sadistic and cowardly unprovoked attack that was captured on video.'" Chief Moreira said.
