When asked Wednesday the reason for planning the killings, one teen said, "we're not doing this for no reason ... what are your reasons? To solve (the older brother's) problems and make profits."

Youth's slaying brings reprisal fears
16-year-old student stabbed
Mourner's note promises payback

STAFF REPORTERS
There was a chilling message yesterday among the candles, flowers, stuffed animals and letters of condolence at the makeshift memorial for a teen who was stabbed to death near his east-end high school Friday.
"I swear I'm (sic) get those (expletive) that got you," read the signed note lying on the police chalk markings and blood-spattered sidewalk outside the Thai Fusion Restaurant, just north of East York Collegiate Institute. The 16-year-old victim had collapsed there after getting involved in a fight with up to 15 teens, who witnesses say were armed with hockey sticks and pool cues.
The eatery remains closed, as does the Mars restaurant a few doors north, where the events leading up to the tragedy began.
Police said Andrew Stewart was playing pool with friends at 1025 Coxwell Ave. on Friday when 10 to 15 males entered the restaurant around 1 p.m.
A fight broke out soon after. Stewart, who was attacked by members of the group, fled the eatery and ran for his life south on Coxwell before several suspects caught up with him a few stores down the road. He was stabbed repeatedly in the chest and left bleeding to death on the sidewalk.
Police have recovered no weapons and the motive remains unknown.
Friends of Stewart who hugged and cried and prayed at the crime scene yesterday said the youth may have been defending a female friend who was attacked by a young male inside Mars. They also believe the attack on him had a racial undertone.
"It's just about race," said Teka Gillis, 18, who'd once dated Stewart "for a few days."
"I can't believe he's dead, over nothing. He was so young."
The victim, who had turned 16 a couple of weeks ago, was also being remembered at his house near Main St. and Lumsden Ave.
Family and friends gathered near another makeshift memorial of flowers, candles and pictures set up under a tree in the front yard. Family pictures and dark blue bandanas were tied to the tree's branches.
"We were supposed to buy a Christmas tree today ... there will be no Christmas in the house this year ... there will be no Christmas," Stewart's grieving mother Cheryl said as she stared at the memorial.
A friend of Stewart's who goes by the nickname Century Sam and wore a bandana similar to those hung on the tree, said Stewart was an avid basketball player and a caring person.
"There has been violence before in that neighbourhood, but I never thought it is going to hit someone close to me," he said.
Mike Hamilton, manager of the Gamezclub across the street from the crime scene, called the incident "a reflection of the downfall of the neighbourhood because of drugs and gangs."
"It's grown from a little bit of nonsense to full-out conflict," Hamilton said.
"I know there are people selling drugs around here. And my customers used to feel safe walking here, now they insist their parents drive them."
At the same time he's fairly certain that Stewart, whom he knew by sight and saw lying on the ground bleeding during his final moments, was not affiliated with a gang.
"You have all these kids — white, Spanish, Tamil, Afghanis, Albanians, black — hanging out together and mostly they're not in a gang, they're just friends."
Local councillor Janet Davis has spoken with police and school officials, who are planning to make a trauma team available at the high school next week.
"There have been concerns expressed by some in the community about the great numbers of students that go out into the community at lunch in significant numbers," said Davis (Ward 31, Beaches-East York).
"There have been concerns about some inappropriate activity around the lunch hour, but fighting has not been an issue that has been prevalent."
Davis said police had proposed increasing their presence in the area at midday.

No offence or anything to all you TO residents, but ...
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON DOWN THERE?
I am hoping they arrest some punks who did that ... otherwise that sets an example that whoever does this can get away ...
And there has still been no arrests since that guy got shot running for a bus ... and a little girl got shot too ... AND I'M SURE THERE WERE PLENTY OF WITNESSES, its jsut nobody stepped out ... WTF
STOP THE VIOLENCE!!! |

"Police are still trying to come up with some detailed descriptions but Sheppard said the suspects are predominately male, black and east Indian and in their mid to late teens."
The annoying thing is, if the situation was reversed and it was predominately whites chasing down a black or east Indian... everyone would be screaming racism and you'd have activist groups swarming the city |

| Sorry for your loss. Especially since he was doing the right thing. I've lost 3 people close to me lately (1 breast cancer, 1 cancerous tumour, 1 suicide). It's going to be a long, cold, winter. You have my sympathy. Your friend's family and friends will be in my prayers. |

RIP

i know some people will defend a child, but the fact is, that children know right from wrong VERY early in life.
if a kid(say 12 yeasr old) can think of a beating a head of time, he knows what he is doing. there is no "oh well i didnt know that was wrong". unfortunatly people have egos these days. it seems that the slighest bit of rudness, is taken as an extreme act.
now just cause some guy bumped you on a crowded street, he needs to be 'tought a lesson'.
Before i did defend rap, saying that people made up their own minds, but now that i take a closer listen to the lyrics(or lack there of), it seems that everybody is rapping about killing, and revenge. I think it is actually influencing SOME of the youth out there.
I do still listen to some rap, but i knew the diff between a story, and actually imitating what i was listening to. |
