Vancouver police say they’ve had interactions over mental health issues with the 30-year-old suspect in Saturday evening’s attack on a Filipino street festival in the city.
They’re ruling out terrorism.
A man drove his S-U-V through the crowds of people on a pedestrian-only street just as the event was wrapping up.
At least 11 people were killed, and police fear the toll could rise, with more than two-dozen others injured.
Vancouver’s police chief calls it the “worst day” in the city’s history.
The suspect is facing eight counts of second-degree murder, and more charges are likely.
