Ontario police has identified the man responsible for a shooting rampage in Toronto’s Greektown as Faisal Hussain. The Special Investigations Unit says Hussain is a 29-year-old from Toronto, the National Post reported.
The provincial police watchdog released Hussain’s identity in a statement after speaking with a member of his family.
“Due to the exceptional circumstances of this tragic incident and the public interest in knowing the man’s identity, the SIU is identifying the man as Faisal Hussain of Toronto,” the statement read.
The Hussain family released a statement expressing their condolences to the families “who are now suffering on account of our son’s horrific actions.”
“We are utterly devastated by the incomprehensible news that our son was responsible for the senseless violence and loss of life that took place on the Danforth,” they said
They added that Hussain had “severe mental health challenges” and was struggling with psychosis and depression his entire life.
“Medications and therapy were unable to treat him. While we did our best to seek help for him throughout his life of struggle and pain, we could never imagine that this would be his devastating and destructive end,” they said.

HMMMM name sounds mighty familiar!
There is no explanation by the parents or excuse broad enough to erase the obvious neglect by family and society to balance this horrific act. Parents knew about his mental condition yet let him free to interact with the public. They, primarily are to blame. Surely there are others that came in some type of contact with him to identify with his mental deficiencies. They too should be held accountable for not doing enough to get care for this individual. Maybe it is fear of being called a racist.
You know what? If only he did not have access to a gun then maybe, just maybe, this might not have happened.
I feel sorry for the families of all involved. Senseless. If only another citizen could have shot back then maybe this could have been avoided. Hindsight is 20/20.
Hey Canada how did he get that gun and how are those gunfree zones working out EHHHH ???
The family is using mental illness as an excuse. He lived in Pakistan and Afghanistan and was a member of ISIS. Terrorist attack plain and simple.

I guess all that "DEATH TO THE JEWS!!" stuff and violent actions and threats really didn't phase them, huh?
Oh. Right.
At home, he was placid and a peaceful follower of the religion of peace and their pedophile, fake God.
Come and get some.....
This guys middle name is Muhammad, so we all know what religion he is!
Send them ALL to Syria.
The tragedy here is people lost their lives, including an innocent child, and there are those of you who will jest about how gun free zones are working. Sickening.
