After a hectic week, my family and I finally had a chance to relax at the Lapu Lapu Filipino Festival. We were enjoying the night when my husband quietly suggested we leave early. I didn’t ask why—I simply followed his lead.
When we got home and saw the news, our hearts sank. A horrific tragedy had struck.
I’m incredibly grateful for God’s protection tonight. We were spared for a reason. We’re safe, and I want to thank all the friends and family who checked in on me & my family🤍
My thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, and the entire Filipino community. 🙏
“A number of people have been killed and multiple others are injured after a driver drove into a crowd at a street festival at E. 41st Avenue and Fraser shortly after 8 p.m. tonight,” the Vancouver Police Department wrote on X.
The driver of the car is in custody, VPD stated. It was not clear why the driver ran into the crowd.
