As if the gun violence in Scarborough wasn’t bad enough, QMI Agency is reporting that a 17-year-old boy was attacked with a machete in Scarberia after he refused to let another teen use his phone.  Forget about the flow of illegal firearms into the country for a second—how the heck does someone smuggle a machete into Toronto?  It’s a long, long way from Chiapas, that’s for sure…

According to QMI, the victim even ran towards a TTC bus, but that didn’t stop our displaced revolucionista.  “The bus driver activated his emergency button and the machete-wielding suspect at first walked away and then returned to continue the attack.”  When police arrived, he was found hiding under a car—clearly knowing better than to bring a knife to a gun fight.  Meanwhile, the victim is in critical condition at an unidentified hospital.

Kinda makes that incident in Montreal, where a man was punched in the face for his iPhone, seem like a walk in the park, doesn’t it?  Forget about bath salts—let’s hope the cops don’t try to blame this one on Brujeria…
