16Yrs old kid form TORONTO shot dead
Family identified Yusuf Tifow, 16, as the boy gunned down in a Weston Rd. apartment building late Sunday night.
Police have not yet confirmed the teen’s identity.
Family members streamed into the apartment where Tifow lived with his mother and four brothers Monday morning, shocked to learn of his violent death.
“He was a nice boy, a bright boy,” said his aunt, Maria Yusuf, outside the family’s apartment.
Maria Yusuf said the boy loved to play basketball.
“I can’t believe it still,” she said through tears.
“He was a quiet kid,” said a family friend who did not want her name used. “He was his mom’s best friend.”

Anything on why it happened? Any leads? Connections? Wrong place, wrong time? Or maybe even wrong person?

RIP
Somalis need to start moving to the suburbs or atleast safer parts of the inner city. Weston & Lawrence is not a place to raise a family.

No one talks ill about the dead. I think some parents allow their kids to get away with few things and even try to buy them everything their child asks for, just to make the kid happy.Marques wrote:Could be gang-related.

Canada is one of the most peaceful countries on earth. Can't figure out why so many Somalis are dying due to gun violence.

I'm not shocked at all
Last night I went out with some friends, outside of the place we were posted at there was a brawl between bunch of teenagers who dressed, looked just like the boy above. I recognized one of the youngsters and tried to calm him down but before I could even do so, both parties pulled out guns and started firing in the air to intimidate one another. Alcohol was a factor. Single mom homes/dead beat dad was a factor. Smh I got the hell out of there, these kids future don't look bright.

Somalis are the only people who leave their country for a worse life somewhere else. No logic at all. From Canada to South Africa
