An SUV plowed into a Vancouver cultural festival on April 26th, killing 11 and injuring dozens. Among the victims was the wife of Hallmark actor Noel Johansen, who delivered a moving eulogy at a vigil. The driver, 30-year-old Kai-Ji Adam Lo, was arrested and faces eight counts of second-degree murder. A GoFundMe for Johansen's family surpassed its goal, raising over $166,000. The incident highlighted safety concerns, as no barriers were in place despite the large crowd.
