A violent afternoon in a west end neighbourhood began with a man and woman brutally stabbed to death inside a home.
It ended with a third person, a man believed to be the killer, being struck and killed by an UP Express train on the tracks directly behind the house near Church St. and King George Rd. — north of Weston Rd. and Lawrence Ave. W. — where the slayings unfolded.
Toronto Police says officers responded just after 2:30 p.m. to a stabbing at the home where they discovered multiple scenes and the three deceased.
All three, whose names were not immediately released, were known to one another, Homicide Det. Sgt. Andy Singh told reporters at the scene.
Police were not looking for any outstanding suspects.
“We don’t believe there’s any threat to the community,” Singh said, unable to elaborate in the immediate aftermath of the deaths.
There was a heavy police presence in the neighbourhood and reports suggest heartbroken relatives visited the scene.
It’s believed the man who was killed by the train scaled a 40-foot wall behind the house after the deadly double stabbing.
