Perhaps it being a news thread you could add some context and a source.

I was watching Cnbc ? and the chief of police was being interviewed.

There you go, not hard is it.

Death toll up to 9.

No motive has been given, although police have said they are “confident” it was not an act of terrorism. Canadian officials are investigating whether mental health issues may have factored into the incident, a law enforcement source briefed on the investigation told CNN.
“At approximately 8:14 p.m. on April 26, a man drove into a large crowd of people attending the Lapu Lapu Day Festival near East 43rd Avenue and Fraser Street. A 30-year-old suspect, a Vancouver man, was arrested at the scene,” a police statement said.
The suspect was known to police “in certain circumstances,” Vancouver Police interim chief Steve Rai told reporters in a press briefing later Sunday.
He declined to give further details, including whether he had a criminal record.
