^ i don't know what happened there but on another note pretty close to the area at QE park, wtf... A 23 year old Vancouver man is in stable condition in hospital after being stabbed at Queen Elizabeth Park early Sunday morning.
Vancouver Police say the attack happened just after 2am when an employee of the "Seasons in the Park" restaurant was walking to his vehicle at end of his shift.
When Officers arrived, they found the man lying on the ground with stab wounds.
Inspector Mike Cumberworth says it appears to be a targetted attack, "I can't say if it's gang related at this time. The victim is not known to us, but bear in mind this is early in the investigation."
One of the suspects is described as an East Indian male in his 20's, 5'9, wearing blue jeans and white runners.
There's no description of the other suspect.
Anyone with information, is asked to contact Vancouver Police or Crimestoppers. http://www.cknw.com/Channels/Reg/New...spx?ID=1096175 | |

yea.. this morning a ambulance with lights and sirens on was rushing to a scene southbound on arbutus and some asian c-lai in a bmw 3 series was turning left onto arbutus from 43rd - without looking of course, and kaboom. both cars were wrecked but no serious injuries to the bimmers' driver - although the car was gone.
good cars.

Left-turner hit him, apparently. Bad start to the season for motorcycle riders... quite a few RIPs. http://www.bcsportbikes.com/forum/sh...d.php?t=111312 |
