A 13-year-old boy is in custody and a shelter-in-place has been lifted in north Pickering after what police believe was a “sadistic and cowardly” random slaying of an elderly woman.
The Durham Regional Police tactical support unit made the arrest Thursday evening “without incident” and cops said charges are pending after an hours-long manhunt in the Fairport Rd.-Lynn Heights Dr. area, north of Finch Ave., where officers had been called at about 3 p.m. to respond to an unknown trouble call.
Note the perp’s identity is unsubstantiated at this time, the “internet” is saying he has been peer identified on social media.
I suspect this whole episode will be hushed up, just like the authorities denied the Danforth shooter’s motive was Islamist Jihad.
