Hit-and-Run That Left Members of Canadian Muslim Family Dead Likely Hate Crime, Police Say

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – A car crash in the Canadian city of London in Southwestern Ontario that left four members of a Muslim family dead was likely a hate crime, the London Police Service said.

At approximately 8.40 pm local time on Sunday, a black pickup truck with a male driver traveling southbound on Hyde Park Road mounted the curb and struck the five people waiting to cross the intersection, according to the police. It continued to drive at a high rate of speed and did not stop for a red light.

The surviving victim, a young boy, is being treated in hospital for serious but non-life-threatening injuries, Chief Stephen Williams said.

The 20-year-old is expected to appear in court later on Monday.
