* "US Troops" where actually an Apache Helicopter gunning down civilians and possible hostiles from afar.And after killing everything in sight, it shredded to pieces a clearly weaponless minivan that stoped to...carry the wounded.

The alleged<ref>As of August 2020, he has not yet had his day in court.</ref> perpetrator had killed ten people and injured others. When stopped by Toronto Police Service constable Ken Lam, the alleged perpetrator pulled something out of his pocket, repeatedly claimed it was a gun, and demanded the constable shoot him. Constable Lam recognized that the object was not a gun, holstered his own gun, and drew his baton, at which point the alleged perpetrator surrendered.
