Desperate for a Fix II
It all started when Daniel Ferreira, 31, allegedly hijacked a bus in Toronto, Ont. “A man boarded the bus and he produced a large knife to the driver causing the other passengers to flee,” Const. Jenifferjit Sidhu said. “He also made the driver run red lights.” The man exited the bus after it arrived at a Tim Hortons donut shop.
