Yet Another NHL Suspension

Aaron Rome’s four-game suspension has left the Vancouver Canucks fuming.

Originally, head coach Alain Vigneault admitted that Rome's hit on Boston Bruin Nathan Horton was late. But after hearing he will be out for the rest of the playoffs, the team is outraged.

Rome's suspension is the longest in playoff history. Neither player will be seen again this spring as Horton suffered a severe concussion due to the hit.


Passerby dies in downtown police shooting

An innocent passerby has died from his injuries after being hit by a stray bullet fired by Montreal police. The incident happened early Tuesday morning in the downtown core, near the corner of  St-Denis and Ste-Catherine.

Police were firing on a 40-year old man who was seen wielding a knife and overturning garbage cans. The 40-year old was gunned down after a foot chase, a block away from the initial incident.

The innocent passerby was on his work at the St-Luc Hospital when he got caught in the fire.

Syria Stops Protests

Syria blocked many pro-Palestinian protesters from reaching the border it shares with Israel Monday in an attempt to avoid the deadly encounter with Israeli forces protesters found last time.

Syrian police set up checkpoints including a one kilometer long one near Israeli held Golan Heights. Over 20 protesters were seen waving flags and walking before being stopped by police. On Sunday protesters passed similar checkpoints as well as UN ones without trouble.
