I wonder how long before this gets buried. Our PM's ego is more important than admitting he fucked up.

Vancouver police say a 23-year-old man has been charged in connection with the fires that triggered an evacuation of Langara College Monday.

Officers were first to the college for reports of a suspicious fire at around noon, and quickly determine that "a suspect had allegedly entered the college with improvised incendiary devices."

These devices were set up in a manner that they were to go off and cause damage, if not harm as well," Const. Jason Doucette told reporters. "Some devices did go off. Some didn't."

From the cop shop ...

Crown counsel has approved charges against 23-year-old Nasradin Abdusamad Ali in relation to an incident at Langara College on Monday.

Just before noon, first responders received reports of a suspicious fire on campus. A suspect had allegedly entered the college with improvised incendiary devices. It appears at least two devices were detonated, causing fires, before the suspect fled the area.

Vancouver Police quickly identified Mr. Ali as the suspect and shared information with other police agencies. He was arrested just after 4 p.m. in Surrey by the Metro Vancouver Transit Police. Mr. Ali was turned over to the VPD and remains in custody.

Crown counsel has charged Mr. Ali with one count of arson in relation to inhabited property, and one count of possession of incendiary material.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the VPD’s Major Crime Section at 604-717-2541 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

No doubt he has mental issues. (Sarcasm)

More info on the suspect. He was a student there, some prior history of aggression. Reports that he had “clashed” with other students before this- something I’ve heard as well through other channels.

So at this point, no indication of an ideological motive as of yet. Maybe just an arsehole. Time will tell, obviously.

I will be very interested to see how this plays out if he was not motivated by known players.

Especially in regards to response to his action amongst certain communities.

How do we get away from a society where we look at acts of violence like this looking to see if it's a white male or Muslim name sounding perpetrator?
