A chilling early morning attack has Toronto police searching for a woman suspected of assaulting two others inside a taxi in the city’s Fashion District. The incident unfolded in the pre-dawn hours of Saturday, leaving investigators piecing together the events that led to the violent encounter.
According to police reports, the two victims had just left a nightclub near King Street West and Portland Street when they were approached by the suspect. She allegedly invited them into a cab, a seemingly innocuous gesture that quickly turned sinister.
Once inside the vehicle, the suspect allegedly launched an assault on both women. Details surrounding the nature of the attack and the extent of the injuries remain undisclosed, though authorities confirm they are not life-threatening.
The suspect was last seen fleeing the scene on foot, disappearing into the city streets. Police have released an image of the woman, hoping a member of the public will recognize her and provide a crucial lead in the investigation.
Investigators describe the suspect as approximately 25 years old, with shoulder-length brown hair. The released image shows her with distinctive curly hair and noticeable eyelash extensions, features that could aid in her identification.
