Back to Back Crimes
Residents woke up to the sounds of police sirens at 4 A.M. today. The man was stab in the early hours of the morning. He was found by the police and the ambulance took him bask to the hospital. The man was in his mid 40s. Just after the man was taken away by an ambulance there was another stabbing. The man was next to a church with on the ground with stab wounds.
I think this is crazy to happen. In the same spot within an hour of each other. Right now the two people are in hospital with serious injuries, but they should be able to survive. I think this is just crazy I don't know why anyone would stab someone else, and I wonder if it was the same stabber twice. I hope they find this guy and get him in jail. I just think this must have been a terrible way to wake up, especially if you have to wake up like that more than once.

Apartment Cleaning
When you leave your apartment there is a law that states that you have to make it clean and "move-in condition". This is what came up today. Someone is being fined for not having the apartment clean enough.
She took pictures before and after of the apartment, and thought it was clean enough, there was no damage, but the owner of the apartment thought it wasn't good enough. He fined her $1,500 and she didn't pay it fr 30 days. They went to court for it and payed $400 for the court session.
I think this was a waste of time. They both had to spend $400 to settle an argument of $1,500. The woman ended up winning the argument, but she still had to spend $400. I agree that the owner of the apartment should be able to charge people who leave the apartment a mess, I think that the person should fix up any damages, but if you are spending $400 over a $1,500 argument, then it's not worth it. I think that people should just clean up there stuff so this doesn't have to happen.

Ignatieff's Promises
Ignatieff, the leader of the Liberal party, has been making different promises about what he is going to do once he gets in power. His biggest promise is that he is giving out a billion dollars for students going into college or university. This would allow students to get $1000 per year for their university. Lower income families could get up to $1500 for every year of university or college.
I like this idea by the liberals. I think that it is a good way for students to have a bit of help in college, and allow them to get a further education. This will also look good for the Liberals. It will allow more students to go to college, so it can make it seem that when the liberals were in power, more students were getting post secondary education. I wonder how they are going pay for all of this, but if it comes out of tax payers money I still think it will be worth it for the students. I think that this is a good promise by the liberals, and I hope that they will keep this promise.

Fire Truck hits car
Police are still trying to figure out why a woman in her car was hit by a fire truck. It was due to the stop lights not working right. Usually they turn green for the oncoming fire truck, but this time the lights didn't switch on time and a 42 year old woman was hit and killed. Police are still trying to figure out who's fault it was, but they can't figure out until they know what colour the light was. Once they know that they have to judge if there was enough time for either person to stop on time.
I think this is just at fault of both the drivers relying too much on the stop light and not relying on what they can see and their own driving skills. I think that timing the stop lights can really help in case of an emergency, but it can't make all the decisions for you. The drivers of the fire trucks still need to look out for different cars, and the drivers of the other cars need to know when a fire truck is coming. I think that this is nobody's fault it is just a case of two people relying on something that isn't 100% effective. The stop lights aren't the answer to people's driving they need to look out for themselves.

Star athlete dies after hitting game winning shot
A high school boy from Michigan died after hitting a game winning shot to end a 20-0 season. The team had just completed a perfect season when they saw their start player collapse. Ambulance came in and brought a defibrillator. They couldn't save him on the spot so they took him back to the hospital. This still couldn't help him because when he got to the hospital. They doctors just couldn't get the boys heart to beat. The boy died later that day.

This is a mystery to everyone, even the doctors couldn't find anything wrong with the boy. There is nothing that could have caused the death, he just collapsed. This is a shock to everyone. The student was a great athlete in basketball in football. He led both of the teams to a championship and had an all state honorable mention. You never hear of this happening a lot to anyone his age, especially all state athletes. There was nothing that the doctors could find that could be wrong with him, but he still collapsed and died. This rarely happens and that probably won't change, but its just so surprising that it could happen.

Man Robs Store with a sword
The clerk in the store is usually prepared for a lot, but he would have never thought he would have been in danger by someone with a sword. They say the men came in carrying a gun and a sword. They told the clerk to give them money and his laptop, then get to the ground. No one was hurt, and now they are trying to find the men who came in and robbed the store. They have suspects, but the police are still looking for them.
I was shocked when i heard this story. There's two things that really make me question this story. The first thing is where would you get a sword to rob the store. I don't know if you can find them in other countries, but I've never heard of people selling sharp swords to use a weapons. The other thing I question is why would you use the sword when you have a gun. I guess if you didn't want to hurt anyone then it wouldn't mater, but I don't understand why you would use a gun. Overall I think this was just a crazy situation, and another stupid reason to get caught for a crime.
