TORONTO -- The Muslim community reacted in horror and shock at what police are investigating as a hate-motivated car attack against a family in London, Ont., on Sunday evening that killed four family members and left a young boy injured.
“To be targeted in this way -- a grandmother, a mother, and father, and young daughter killed so senselessly. While the young boy, who is set to survive now, has lost his family. My hands have been shaking for much of the day since I’ve heard this news,” said Amira Elghawaby, a human rights advocate and founding board member of the Canadian Anti-Hate Network, on Power Play.
