A parent has complained on Leaside Community Facebook that her son was waylaid by three others about 7.30 Saturday night at Bessborough School by three boys. The trio punched the lad, kicked him and stole his black & brown Tracker backpack. The mom who reports this says two of the three were wearing white hoodies and the other a black hoodie. One was wearing Sperry shoes. Among the many responses are people urging the woman to call police if she hasn’t already. Many say they can’t believe it happened in this neighbourhood. Another says a “neighbourhood watch needs to be re established in our hood. Also can everyone agree to do/say something if they see something happening? I can’t believe not one person saw this. I’ll be asking the teens if these kids sound familiar and will dm you if I hear anything.” Yet another notes that the school or surrounding homes might have had cameras, a good reason for calling police.
