3 adults and 1 teen were run over in London, On and another Child in hospital with life threatening injuries. Looks like they were targeted because they were Muslim.

That's awful, especially if it's random and for no other reason other than they were Muslim.
I just can't imagine or believe that people can pack this much hate.
That's why I always say Hi or Hello to people when I'm out and about and you can tell sometimes it makes a big difference just acknowledging someone that may be new here and a long way from their family.

9 year old kid is going to wake up and realize that his whole family is gone, sad.
"A man allegedly got in his car, saw a Muslim family walking down the street, and made the decision that they do not deserve to live," said the organization's CEO Mustafa Farooq.
"He did not know them. This is a terrorist attack on Canadian soil, and should be treated as such," his statement continued.

When I heard "London" on the radio, I ignorantly thought "must be England".

London Mayor Ed Holder offered his condolences to the family and the city's Muslim community.
"This was an act of mass murder, perpetrated against Muslims — against Londoners — and rooted in unspeakable hatred," he said. "This act of unspeakable hatred, this act of Islamophobia, must be followed by acts of compassion, acts of kindness, acts of empathy, acts of solidarity — justice — and, above all else, love."
Nawaz Tahir is a London lawyer who's a representative of the Muslim community.
"These were innocent human beings who were killed simply because they were Muslim," he said.
"We will stand strong against hate. We will stand strong against Islamophobia. We will stand strong against terror with faith, with love, and a quest for justice. Hate will never overshadow the light of love."
The 20-year-old doesn't have a previous criminal record.
Veltman was arrested a short distance away from the scene of the crash, at Oxford Street West and Cherryhill Boulevard, near Cherryhill Mall. He was wearing a vest that appeared to be similar to body armour, Waight said.

I note there is a Mosque and an Islamic school close to where he was arrested.

Charge that piece of garbage with 4 counts of 1st degree murder and throw on some terrorism charges on top. No place for that hatred in this country. Throw the book at him.

What a horrible thing to happen. So tragic, and so senseless.
They better not go light on the POS murderer.

So I have a question as I seethe words terrorism and Islam a phobia, but the article indicates that they have not yet connect the driver to any group.
How do we know that he would not have run over any family in that crosswalk? Or is this a case of it looks like a duck, talks like a duck?
