Hey,

I haven't seen this break anywhere yet and it MAY be nothing. I was just walking into the Eaton's Centre and heard some people yelling about a bomb and noticed some people running back. Not wanting to take any chances, I also evacuated. Again, this may be nothing, but I also heard emergency vehicles show up near my building.

Edit: I'm really hoping it's nothing. Hoping for false bomb threat. I work at a building right beside it.

 

[flkraven]

Did this happen just now?

 

[valkillmore]

Stay safe OP who knows if it's credible or not just get to somewhere you feel safe.

 

[Killer Queen]

I'm in the area right now. Hope it's nothing and that everyone is alright.

 

[TheGamingBox]

i see nothing on twitter about the eaton centre

 

[Veritigo_X]

I'd wait for actual news on this before speculating. A lot of people are on edge all over the country after this weekend.

My alma mater just had a bomb scare yesterday. Roped off two blocks and got the robot out and everything just for an abandoned backpack.

Literally like 4 minutes or so ago. Again, I'm really hoping it's nothing. There was just this aura about it. You could feel the tension. It rattled me a bit to be honest. Could be mass panic.

 

[Raxus]

Stay safe Earthstrike. Here's hoping it was just a scare after the NY incident.

 

[doctorcdcs]

Wow, I hope it's nothing more than a couple of kids being dummies.

 

[TheWrathOfSean]

Stay safe. Hope it's a false alarm.

I'm sure they were just talking about Mike Babcock's first year with the Leafs, but on the off chance it's something nefarious, be safe Toronto-GAF!

 

[doctorcdcs]

I'm listening to news radio now to see if anything pops up

 

[gaming_noob]

Crazy... No news yet.

 

[SSReborn]

I'm seeing something about a possible stabbing or shooting on Twitter nothing about a bomb however.

 

[Fuzzy]

They were probably talking about Nordstrom..

 

[krae_man]

Found this:

Man stabbed multiple times near HMV inside the Eaton Centre. @TorontoMedics on scene. #Toronto

Hmm, yeah I'm starting to see reports about a stabbing outside the HMV

Lol, thanks guys. I need a laugh. Even if this turns out to be nothing, you still get rattled by this. Irrespective of what happened, when you enter that situation, your instincts take over. It was pretty much game theory. Either it's real or it's nothing. Always retreating means you have no chance of dying. Always entering and proceeding runs a risk of death. Therefore evacuate.

Man, Here comes another emergency vehicle.

 

[MegaPanda]

Police are reporting it as a stabbing

Alright, can we get a mod to change the title please? Definitely a stabbing. Also, I guess I still have time on my lunch break now to go buy SMT IV: Apocalypse, which is why I was originally going.

let's be fair here, they were up front from the beginning about the team being awful for a number of years when he took over.

I liked the fact that he wasn't trying to sell us some dream about playoffs or a cup like coaches and GM's before him.

 

[commedieu]

Most polite possible terrorism warning ever.

Stay classy canada.

Sounds like they have a suspect.

Maybe the mods can just change this into a Leafs Suck thread.

 

[doctorcdcs]

Just heard it on 680 news

man stabbed at Eaton's Centre multiple times, and there has been an arrest.

 

[How About No]

Most polite possible terrorism warning ever.

Lol

But hope the stabbed guy is ok

 

[jstripes]

Looking at Twitter it looks like it happened by the fountain.

Well... you suck!


GO LEAFS GO

Just took a look at the scene of the crime. Small puddle of blood soaked up by cloths, pile of clothes on the floor. Guy is alive (and at hospital obviously)
