Jeffrey Lovell, 42, is charged after unprovoked attack on stranger at TTC station


A 42-year-old man has been charged after an unprovoked attack on a TTC subway platform last month.

Toronto Police allege the assault occurred at the Islington Station, at Islington Ave. and Bloor St. W., shortly after noon on March 6.

While waiting for a train on the eastbound subway platform, a man “suddenly” punched an adult male in the face “without provocation,” Const. Laurie McCann said Wednesday.

She said the victim and assailant were not known to one another.

“The victim attended a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries,” McCann said.

Investigators identified a suspect and released security camera images of the man.

On Wednesday night, police said Jeffrey Lovell, of Toronto, was arrested and charged with assault.
