The British Columbia Prosecution Service charged Kai-Ji Adam Lo, 30, with eight counts of second degree murder and said more charges were possible. Investigators ruled out terrorism and said Lo had a history of mental health issues. Lo, a Vancouver resident, appeared in court and remains in custody, prosecutors said. Some of the injured were in critical condition, as the tragedy shook Canada before a federal election. Authorities had not released victims' names by Sunday evening. A man driving a black Audi SUV entered the street just after 8 p.m. Saturday and struck people attending the Lapu Lapu Day festival. He was arrested at the scene. “It is the darkest day in Vancouver’s history,” Police Interim Chief Steve Rai told a news conference. Investigators ruled out terrorism. “The person we have in custody does have a significant history of interactions with police and health care professionals related to mental health," he said. Video of the aftermath shows the dead and injured along a narrow street in South Vancouver lined by food trucks. The front of the driver's SUV is smashed in. Kris Pangilinan, who brought his pop-up clothing and lifestyle booth to the festival, saw the vehicle enter past the barricade slowly before the driver slammed on the gas in an area that was packed with people after a concert. He said hearing the sounds of bodies hitting the vehicle will never leave his mind. "He sideswiped someone on his right side and I was like, ‘Oh, yo yo.’ And then he slammed on the gas,” he said. “And the sound of the acceleration, it sounds like an F1 car about to start a race. "He slammed on the gas, barreled through the crowd. And all I can remember is seeing bodies flying up in the air higher than the food trucks themselves and landing on the ground and people yelling and screaming. It looked like a bowling ball hitting bowling pins and all the pins are flying into the air.” Pangilinan said that it would be hard to believe “that someone has some malice against the Filipino people.” WATCH: Murder charges filed against suspect in attack on Vancouver street festival that killed 11 #usa #america #canada #uk #love #newyork #instagram #california #travel #instagood #fashion #photography #australia #india #germany #trump #london #follow #dubai #france #europe #like #art #miami #florida #a #italy #unitedstates #nyc #music #BC'
