THREE DEAD IN CROSSBOW INCIDENT: Three people suffering from what appeared to be wounds from a crossbow died in Toronto on Thursday in an incident that rocked an otherwise quiet neighbourhood in the city’s east end. Police said an injured fourth person — a 35-year-old man — was taken into custody, but few other details of what happened were released. The victims were found in the driveway of a bungalow by officers who responded to a stabbing report in the early afternoon. Police are not looking for any suspects.
