On 23 April 2018, a vehicle-ramming attack occurred in North York City Centre at a busy street intersection at Yonge Street in North York, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1] A white rental van driven by Alek Minassian collided with numerous pedestrians.[1] The motive is currently unknown.[2] Some newspapers said that Minassian was an incel. They also said that he wanted to start an incel rebellion.[3]
11 people were killed and 15 others injured.[4][5]
The first of the ten killed victims to be identified was Anne Marie D'Amico, an analyst for the American-based investment company Invesco which has an office on Yonge Street.[6] The South Korean government announced that two South Korean nationals were confirmed killed, and a third was injured in the attack.[7]
U.S. President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron expressed their sympathies and condolences when addressing the press at the White House the next day.[8]
