A model says she feels like a"sitting duck" wearing designer clothes in downtown Toronto amid a general state of unease in the city in response to an uptick in violent crimes.posted a video on Instagram and TikTok where the local model claimed that she sprinted two blocks to her car after a recent modelling shoot in Toronto after being overcome with the sense that her expensive attire read as"a stop sign screaming 'rob me.
"And as I jumped out onto the street, I have to say that I realized for the first time ever in the city of downtown Toronto, I was truly like a sitting duck and that this is no longer okay to be running around like this, that I need to be a little more downplayed so that I don't attract attention." Kizemchuk says she was"a little unnerved" and felt compelled to run"two blocks to my car and continuously check to see if anyone was popping out from somewhere because I was like a stop sign screaming 'rob me.'"
"And that's how I felt for the first time ever, in this beautiful city of Toronto, which I grew up in and don't recognize anymore."Unfortunately crime has increased everywhere. If you are on the street in downtown Toronto, and you are decked out head to toe in designer goods, you are calling attention to yourself and you would be lucky if you're not mugged. Sadly, it is the same or worse in all big cities.
