Saskatoon police are reaching out to members of the local Muslim community after a man in possession of an Islamic State group-type flag attacked a police officer in Edmonton and then attempted to run down pedestrians in a U-Haul truck.
...
On Sunday, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at Canada condemned the attack in Edmonton and urged calm and patience as police continue their investigation.
“We are shocked and deeply grieved by the senseless attack that took place in Edmonton,” its national president, Lal Khan Malik, said in a statement. “Our sincerest thoughts and prayers are with those injured and affected by this senseless act of violence.”
Police officers identified the suspect in a U-Haul just before midnight on Saturday and chased the vehicle into downtown Edmonton. The U-Haul driver attempted to run down pedestrians before the U-Haul was knocked on its side and the driver arrested. Four people were struck and taken to hospital. Two pedestrians and the injured police officer had been released from hospital as of Sunday afternoon.
