Jeremy Mackenzie, a far-right livestreamer and founder of the de-facto group “Diagolon,” has been arrested on a Canada-wide warrant, Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia RCMP have confirmed to Global News.
Mackenzie made headlines this week after he allegedly made a joke about sexually assaulting Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s wife, Anaida Poilievre, and his livestreams have faced close scrutiny by extremism researchers — some of whom have raised the alarm about the content.
Many retailers are emptying their shelves across the country, but not because of low stock. A concerning increase in thefts has pushed companies to put more products under lock and key, the Wall Street Journal reports.
At one Best Buy store in the suburbs of Houston, where hundreds of items like Bose speakers and Fitbit activity trackers used to sit on the shelves, shoppers will instead find small blue signs that read, “This product kept in secured location.”
Kill are be killed.”
That’s what a spray-painted graffiti message reads on a metal wall a stone’s throw from the 1500 block of Government Street near downtown Baton Rouge. It’s a double testament — both to the scandalously dangerous character of that particular speck of earth along one of the city’s main thoroughfares and to the scandalously dangerous deficiency of the public schools in East Baton Rouge Parish.
The rise in murders in recent years has been accompanied by another trend—criminals are increasingly modifying their firearms to enable fully automatic fire, converting simple handguns into tiny machine guns.
Demand for private security is booming in Minneapolis.
In June 2020, the Minneapolis city council famously vowed to defund the police department. Though their plans fell through, the fully funded MPD is nonetheless struggling. More than 250 officers have resigned or retired since then. Earlier this year, the Minneapolis supreme court ruled that the city has a duty to staff the MPD with a minimum of 731 sworn officers, but the department is at least 100 officers short of that target. Meantime, crime has spiked, with 96 homicides in 2021—doubling the number in 2019 and tying a 1995 record.
Myles Sanderson had racked up quite a criminal record in his three decades on the planet — 59 convictions in all.
And yet, time and time again, Sanderson was given chance after chance after chance.
More sweat lodges and basketball courts is the only answer.
The man police say killed a Toronto police officer and a Milton mechanic in a multi-city shooting rampage Monday was in 2007 placed on a national “flagging system” for being a “high-risk” to re-offend following a conviction on two counts of robbery and carrying a concealed weapon, police said Thursday.
In an update on their sprawling, multi-jurisdiction investigation, Peel Regional Police provided greater detail about Monday’s shootings in Mississauga and Milton —which killed Toronto police Const. Andrew Hong and Milton auto mechanic Shakeel Ashraf — and about the gunman, 40-year-old Sean Petrie.
It was the first time many Ontarians had received an emergency alert on their phones notifying them of an “active shooter.”
The notification, sent at 4:25 p.m. on Monday, said that Peel Regional Police were investigating the situation and a suspect was “armed and dangerous” and in a stolen vehicle. “If seen, do not approach,” it added. What the alert did not include was the location or model of the suspect’s car; a link attached to the message didn’t seem to be working for many residents.
BOSTON (AP) — Federal officials are examining whether the employee who reported an explosion at Northeastern University may have lied to investigators and staged the incident, law enforcement officials said Wednesday.
Investigators identified inconsistencies in the employee’s statement and became skeptical because his injuries did not match wounds typically consistent with an explosion, said one official.
The officials could not discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
There is still no sign of the man who murdered a Moncton teenager in the 1980s after he breached his parole and disappeared almost two weeks ago.
Now, the victim’s sister says she has been told she can’t post a recent photo of him on social media.
Laura Ann Davis was just 16 when she was shot and killed by Patrice Mailloux at her family’s store on George Street in Moncton on Nov. 14, 1987.
Because coddling criminals has worked out so well in Ontario and Saskatchewan.
The suspected gunman who killed two, including a Toronto police officer, and injured three others, had a lengthy criminal history, according to parole records obtained by Global News.
A Parole Board of Canada decision from 2010 stated that Sean Petrie had previous convictions for violent crimes like robbery and illegally possessing guns, and also suggested he had alleged gang connections.
Mob rule has become the law of the land, according to the results of the George Floyd hearing.
Said Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. of the Atlanta jury that convicted Leo Frank of murdering a 13-year-old female employee in 1913, “Mob law does not become due process of law by securing the assent of a terrified jury.” Frank was Jewish. The jurors were not necessarily anti-Semitic, but they had good reason to be terrified of the mobs that were. After Georgia Gov. John Slaton commuted Frank’s sentence from death to life imprisonment, the mobs stormed the prison, abducted Frank, and hanged him. Slaton and his wife were forced to leave the state.
ROSTHERN, Sask.—The manhunt ended in the grass beside Highway 11, where two RCMP vehicles forced mass murder suspect Myles Sanderson’s stolen white Chevy Avalanche off the road.
His capture and subsequent death in custody on Wednesday was the end of four days on the run for the 32-year-old resident of James Smith Cree Nation, but he was accustomed to life as a fugitive.
A Toronto Police officer running a training course was shot and killed in Mississauga on Monday afternoon in what Peel Police Chief Nish Duraiappah described as an “unprovoked” attack, which preceded a dramatic string of violence that left three dead and three injured, including the suspect, across various parts of the GTA.
