What is the name of the murderer & Victim of the Canadian Stabbing and decapitation?

Question

I can't believe nobody tried to attack the murderer with a carry on bag or anything to stop him from killing that young guy! He stabbed the man to death! How could he pay attention to stabbing and fighting off attacks at the same time,so why didn't they stop him?

I wanna know what got into that guy! His background & zodiac sign will explain a lot! Just like the Virgina Tech killer.

Answer 1

It's Vincent Li.

And like yourself and Shambo up above, I'm really disgusted that because there was a way OFF the bus, that was the choice the people took.

And I'm Canadian.

I don't want to hear about "You weren't there", you don't know.. Yes, I do.  That entire bus wasn't filled with elderly people and children.

Apparently he was 'acting robotically' while stabbing.  Good thing for the fleeing passengers, hmm?!  What I really mean is that one of those guys could have attempted to knock him out, I know I wouldn't have left some poor guy to die.. I'd help or push people to.

He (the suspect, perp) wasn't even looking their way while commiting this atrocious act, so they could have clobbered him.

Think about the brave guys and girls on United Flight #93 - They risked their lives with guys who may have had guns and bombs.

The difference?  The greyhound bus passengers had a way off, and they took it.

Glad I wasn't on the bus that day, nice to know if it had been me he was attacking, I couldn't have counted on my 'fellow passengers' for help.  Sheesh.

Answer 2

It's terrible. It seems everybody was running to get off the bus while that poor lad got it. What does that say about society?  

Answer 3

There is no way that man could have taken on every passenger at once! They could have easliy subdued him before any more harm could have befallen poor Tim! It's a horrible world where people will do this out of no where, and an even worse one where no one will help! I will be praying for this man's death tonight! If anyone has a picture of him, i would like you to e-mail it to me, so i can have his face in my head while i pray.

This story greatly lowers my faith in humanity, lower than it already was! Don't give me this "You don't know! you weren't there!" bull! I'm only 15 years old, and i would have thrown all caution to the wind! Just to stop something like this! All of you who defend their actions, or 'lack there of" are cowards! I'm infuriated right now! You have no idea! AND WHATS WORSE, they're probably NOT going to kill him! Because the guys an effing lunatic! I say we remove everyone like this from society ASAP!!!

It's a sad world after all...

Answer 4

the passengers absolutely did the right thing... there could have been more people seriously injured or killed in this incident had the first witnesses not got up and got everyone's attention to get them off the bus, not to mention getting the driver to pull over the bus so everyone could get off safely.

The barricaded the suspect on the bus also, which prevented his escape and prevented him from harming any other innocent, unarmed passengers.  

By the time anyone realized what was actually happening, I'm sure it was too late for poor Tim McLean...

There are just some psychos out there in this world, and no one would have ever seen it coming.  

It's easy for people who weren't there to say "someone should have stopped him!" etc... but until you are put in a situation like that, you never know how you would react.  h**l, you could have been cowering in your seat, scared to even make a sound to warn the other passengers of what was happening!

Cudos to the passengers who did alert everyone else, it is because of them that only one person lost their life in this terrible incident... and that the man responsible is now in custody, being charged for what he did, instead of running free to do more unimaginable things like this.

oh, and Vincent Li of Edmonton who was apparently a normal guy, is the suspect.

check out cbc.ca... or any news site, or even turn on your tv.

why don't you try looking on the news instead of yahoo answers... h**l, even yahoo.ca has the story up under their news section.

Answer 5

they could've been killed too!!!!

passengers did the right thing
