Police have arrested a 14-year-old male in connection with the unprovoked stabbing of an elderly woman in Pickering, Ont., who they believe was not known to the suspect. A shelter-in-place alert issued after the incident was lifted after the arrest.
The woman was outside her home just after 3 p.m. local time on May 29, when the suspect approached her and, after a brief interaction, stabbed her in a “sadistic and cowardly” way, Police Chief Peter Moreira of the Durham Regional Police said in a press conference.
