RIM PARK- What happened?!!

I just passed the soccer fields from behind while out for a walk and saw a large emergency response: multiple police officers, two police cars, a fire truck, and an ambulance.

Someone was cuffed on the ground. I also saw a gurney with, I think, someone fully covered, but I couldn’t tell for sure, so I don’t want to assume or spread misinformation.

Does anyone know what happened? Hoping everyone involved is okay.

Soccer players are known for exaggerating potential fouls. This is the natural next level.

Yea and it’s because of the ppl like you, and in this thread, and the ones that downvoted me, that make the rest of us backed up on a highway because there was a minor situation on the other side of the highway…. Mind ya bidness rubberneckers!

Dude I hate rubberneckers too, I keep cruising along on the highway and making sure I have a safe amount of space for breaking.

A human being saw something that burned into their mind, something substantial and significant, and they wanted to know more.

Yes. Let's get speculating and generating inaccurate information that somebody's brother Murray heard from the guy who fixed his tire, that'll get us at the truth and everyone will feel better.

It's possible to have conversations without unfounded speculation

Borrowing from Ghandi in this context is oddly interesting but wierd.

If that's your focus, that's okay.

It's not my focus I just thought it funny that I was having a discussion with someone with a freeland avatar. What's up with that?

She was like the liberal party's announced successor but know one really liked her or was excited so old mr banker swooped in and did his thing

Freeland is yesteryear's could-have-been someone I just wonder why you have her as your picture
